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.
