1
I've done a bad thing, it's okay
2
I'm going down to the river today
3
And the river's gonna wash my sins away
4
'Til I'm born again tomorrow
5
Oh, to get over my head
6
Make me forget my sorrow
7
I'm going down to the river alone
8
Don't tell Mama and Daddy I'm gone
9
And if they cry when I don't come home
10
Just lie and tell them I'm funnin'
11
Whoa, to get out of my eyes
12
Into the river wide I'm runnin'
13
And I can't swim but it's alright
14
'Cause all my sin will drag me down even if I could
15
And if it weren't for him and the love that night
16
I'd be living for the light like a good girl should
17
'Cause a good girl should
18
This old town will have my skin
19
I can't speak the trouble I'm in
20
So if I don't come back again
21
Go lie beneath the willow
22
'Cause where I carved my name
23
Is where my soul, you'll remain
24
And I'll still know
25
Lord, and I can't swim but it's alright
26
'Cause all my sin will drag me down even if I could
27
And if it weren't for him and the love that night
28
I'd be living for the light like a good girl should
29
'Cause a good girl should
30
When I meet the Lord so kind
31
I'm gonna give Him a piece of my mind
32
And I'll tell Him I wanna know why oh why
33
When He's so damned forgivin'
34
My daddy won't look in my eyes
35
Momma knows the lies I'm living
36
Oh, and I can't swim but it's alright
37
'Cause all my sin will drag me down even if I could
38
And if it weren't for him and the love that night
39
I'd be living for the light like a good girl should
40
'Cause a good girl should
