I'm Going to a River

I'm going to the river to drown my sorrows

I'm going to the river to drown my sorrows

I'm going to the river to kill my pain

I'm going to the river to wash my sins

I'm going to the river to wash my sins

I'm going to the river and jump right in

I'm going to the river and if it gets right

Gonna fill it with the teardrops from my eyes

Till the water gets high and overflow

I'm going to the river and drown my sorrows

I'm going to the bottom of the river's bed

I'm going to the bottom of the river's bed

Gonna lay my body, gonna rest my head

I'm going to the river and if it gets right

Gonna fill it with the teardrops from my eyes

Till the water gets high and overflow
