Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well I was born a Southern man
To a farmer of the land
He took me down to the water
To meet Jesus hand in hand
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
It was there I saw the light
Prayed to Jesus every night
Well he said, son, just have faith
Not much longer and you'll have the way
And he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
And he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well, let's go down to the water
Down to the water
Well, let's go down to the water
Down to the water, that clear water
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
Well, he said, hey, there I go
Down the river there I go
