Going Down to the River – Doug Seegers
[Verse #1]
Am
I’m going down to the river
Dm Am
to wash my soul again.
Dm
I’ve been runnin' with the devil
Am
and I know that he’s not my friend
Dm
I’ve been fallin' by the wayside
Am
livin' in this world of sins
F
I’m going down to the river
E Am
gonna wash my soul again.
[Verse #2]
Am
I’m going down to the river
Dm Am
to bury my head in the creek
Dm
I’m gonna jump into that water
Am
baptize both my feet.
Dm
‘Cause everywhere I’ve been walking
Am
I’ve been getting in trouble deep.
F
I’m going down to the river
E Am
gonna wash my soul again.
[Bridge]
Dm
Well, this whole world's going to hell
Am
In a handbasket
Dm
If I don’t get some resurrection soon
E Am
I’m gonna end up in a casket, whohohohoo
