Down to the River

I'm going down, down, down to the river
 And there ain't nobody gonna have to hold my hand
 I'm going down, down, down to the river
 Gonna bury my troubles in the river bottom sand
 You said goodbye to me this morning
 And slowly walked out of my life
 I don't know how I'll live without you
 I only know I've gotta try
 I'm going down, down, down to the river
 And there ain't nobody gonna have to hold my hand
 I'm going down, down, down to the river
 Gonna bury my troubles in the river bottom sand
 ♪
 The telephone has started ringing
 Friends call to see if it is true
 I don't know words to say it's over
 I only know that I love you
 I'm going down, down, down to the river
 And there ain't nobody gonna have to hold my hand
 I'm going down, down, down to the river
 Gonna bury my troubles in the river bottom sand
