Jessta James - The River Lyrics

Lord, I'm coming back
I, I, I
I'm tired of runnin'
Oh, I been runnin'
Ease my worried
Mind
Don't let him keep his hold

Went down to see the preacher
I told him all my sins
He said, you're on a one-way train
And we both know how it ends
I said, I've got a fever
That I can't escape
I just got to make amends
Wanna see them pearly gates

But when the full moon's risin'
The wolf's coming out to play
You know I can't help myself

So take me to the river for my ways
Drop me in the water, wash 'em all way
Lord, give me one more chance
Help me pry my soul from the devil's hands

I've done some good things
And I've done some bad
But you can't rewind,
So there ain't no looking back

And I'ma good man,
But sometimes I fall
Son, don't ever poke the bear
When his back's up against the wall
'Cause when the full moon's risin'
And the bad wolf's out again
I just can't help myself

So take me to the river for my ways
Drop me in the water, wash 'em all way
Lord, give me one more chance
Help me pry my soul from the devil's hands

Lord, I'm coming back
I, I, I
I'm tired of runnin'
Oh, I been runnin'
Ease my worried
Mind
Don't let him keep his hold

So take me to the river for my ways
Drop me in the water, wash 'em all way
Lord, give me one more chance
Just one more, one more, one more chance

So take me to the river for my ways
Drop me in the water, wash 'em all way
Lord, give me one more chance
Help me pry my soul
