Rice Drewry: Music

Goin' Down to the River

(Rice Drewry)
Goin’ down to the river
Gonna wash my blues away
Goin’ down to the river
And let the water wash my soul and carry me away

On a cold, rainy night in Memphis
She left me standing here all alone
She said she had found another
Well I could feel my heart dropping just like a stone

But I know, I could never blame her
When she called my name I wasn’t there
Ain’t no time for second guessing, no, no
When love’s legacy is suddenly so rare

Goin’ down to the river
Gonna wash my blues away
Goin’ down to the river
And let the water wash my soul and carry me away

(repeat bridge and chorus)
