Stay til the morning so I don't feel no pain
Live in the darkness, pray I don't see no rain
Son of my father said he don't raise no fool
Run with the devil, gonna catch up with you
(CHORUS)
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
Down on my knees, oh will He forgive my sins
Nobody wants to live in the state I'm in
Son of my mother, said she don't raise no fool
Run with the devil, gonna catch up with you
(CHORUS)
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
(Down the river, Down the river
Save my soul
Down the river, Down the river)
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
Down to the river's where I go
To save my soul, save my soul
