Went to the river and I turned around Because I didn't want to drown, drown, drown Wow, no no But the water was cold and it didn't satisfy my soul Well I went to the river once before But no no no, I won't do that no more Wow, no no Yet the water was cold and it didn't satisfy my soul You can tell my mama and my wife I changed my mind, I'm not gonna change my life Wow, no no Yet the water was cold and it didn't satisfy my soul (Instrumental) Yes I went to the river and I turned around Because I didn't want to drown, drown, drown Wow, no no But the water was cold and it didn't satisfy my soul (Instrumental and fade)
