I'm a going down down down to the river 
And there ain't nobody gonna have to hold my hand 
I'm a 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 a going down down down to the river 
And there ain't nobody gonna have to hold my hand 
I'm a 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 a going down down down to the river 
And there ain't nobody gonna have to hold my hand 
I'm a going down down down to the river 
Gonna bury my troubles in the river bottom sand
