The River

by Blues Saraceno

Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river
The devil has come to carry me home
Lay me at the bottom, the bottom of the river

Oh, my Lord, take this hand
Save me from the gallows
Hear this news, bear my gold
Lay me in the shallows
Evil’ll come if you call my name
The wicked day shall rise
The river’s sin’s gonna wash me clean
The river don’t run dry

Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river
The devil has come to carry me home
Lay me at the bottom, the bottom of the river

Oh, my Lord, here my woe
There’s blood upon the valley
Take this sword to kill, I’ve done
Deliver me from worry
The devil’s hands’ gonna strike me down
Cut me to my grave
The river’s songs’ gonna pull me through
The river she can save

Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river
The devil has come to carry me home
Lay me at the bottom, the bottom of the-
Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river
Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river

Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river
The devil has come to carry me home
Lay me at the bottom
Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river
The devil has come to carry me home
Lay me at the bottom, the bottom of the river

Oh, my Lord, take this soul
Lay me at the bottom of the river (bottom of the river)
The devil has come to carry me home
Lay me at the bottom, the bottom of the river
