I'm going down to the river to wash my soul again . I 've been runnin with the Devil ,and I know he's not my Friend. I've been falling by this wayside , livin in this world of sin . I'm going down to the river , gonna wash my soul again .
I'm going out to the country , to bury my head in a creek . I'm gonna jump into that water , baptize both my feet . Cause everywhere I've been walking , I've been getting in trouble deep. Going down to the river , gonna wash my soul again .
Well this whole world is going to Hell in a hand basket . If I don't get some resurrection soon I 'm going to end up in a Casket . Well --- Whooo . BREAK. I'm going down to the river to wash my soul again I 've been runnin with the Devil ,and I know he's not my Friend. I've been falling by this wayside , livin in this world of sin . I'm going down to the river , gonna wash my soul again . I'm going down to the river , gonna wash my soul again. I'm going down to the river , gonna wash my soul again.
