Down To The River

I've been walking too long

Too long, yes

Shake my head and wonder why I cry those tears

So that my feet are burning, Lord

And my eyes they cannot see

Would you tell me why it is that these shoes terrify me

Yeah, they terrify me

Take me down

Down to the river

Down to the river then

Sweet love got to walk beside me

Hold my hand

Down to the river

Down to the river, Lord

Sweet love got to hold me under

Save my soul

Yes, you've got to save my soul

You've got to save my soul, now

Save my soul

Yes, you've got to save my soul, now

Spent most of my life confused and in pain

Things I can lie never begin to explain

It takes more than a glas of cool water

To toss this flame

Yes, with my peace and my cup

And my eyes turned up to heaven

I messed up back then in the rain

Yes, back up in the rain, now

Down to the river

Down to the river then

Sweet love got to walk beside me

Hold my hand

Down to the river

Down to the river, Lord

Sweet love got to hold me under

Save my soul

Save my soul

Save my soul

You've got to save my soul

Save, save it

Ohh

Save my soul

Save my soul

Ohh

Yeah yeah

Ahh

Yeah yeah
