[Verse 1]

Gonna take my body down

Right down, down, down to the river

Gonna take my body down

[Pre-Chorus]

Let the water carry me away

Just float away

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Chorus]

Bury all of my things

Bury me in my skin

All that I've done

Oh Lord, I'm done

Who'd wanna be a king

Pulling too many strings?

All that I've done

Oh Lord, I'm done

[Post-Chorus]

(Oh) Carry me away

I'll float away (Oh)

In the river

[Verse 2]

Gonna lay my head right down

Right now, now, now and forever

Gonna lay my head right down

[Pre-Chorus]

Let the water carry me away

Just float away

[Chorus]

Bury all of my things

Bury me in my skin

All that I've done

Oh Lord, I'm done

Who'd wanna be a king

Pulling too many strings?

All that I've done

Oh Lord, I'm done

[Post-Chorus]

(Oh) Carry me away

I'll float away (Oh)

[Bridge]

In the river, oh-oh

In the river, oh-oh

In the river, oh, yеah

[Chorus]

Bury all of my things

Bury me in my skin

All that I've done

Oh Lord, I'm donе

Who'd wanna be a king

Pulling too many strings?

All that I've done

Oh Lord, I'm done

(Oh)

[Outro]

Gonna take my body down

Right down, down, down to the river
