I've been down by the river Washed up and soaked to the core In my time by the water I'm sinking to a place I knew before Cos I'm shot down and left for dead Swamped down and stuck inside my head There's nothing you can say or do You got to let the river, let the river run through you I am down and I am drowning Swallowed too much pride to stay afloat Cos when you wind up with next to nothing It'll cost you more than you'll ever know Cos I'm shot down and left for dead Swamped down and stuck inside my head There's nothing you can say or do You got to let the river, let the river run through you I have passed by the river Refused to let it swallow me whole Cos when you feel the cold, hard shiver Then you know it's time for you to go Cos I'm shot down and left for dead Swamped down and stuck inside my head There's nothing you can say or do You got to let the river, let the river run through you Cos I'm shot down and left for dead Swamped down and stuck inside my head There's nothing you can say or do You got to let the river, let the river run through you
