Lyrics

Bouncin' off the bottom, Lord, drownin' in despair

Used to think there was no satisfaction anywhere

Now I'm walkin' every day a big smile on my face

Everybody's askin' me where I found this state of grace

Say where ya been? (down by the river)

Are ya goin' again? (down by the river)

What ya gonna do then? (down by the river)

Get on my knees and pray

Gonna talk it out. (down by the river)

What it's all about? (down by the river)

Not a shadow of a doubt (down by the river)

Thank you, Lord, I'm saved

Everyone around the world no matter who they be

Men and women, boys and girls, sinners just like me

Rich, poor, hypocrite all benefit the same

Make a trip, take the dip

Brother, you'll be glad you came

Say where ya been? (down by the river)

Are ya goin' again? (down by the river)

What ya gonna do then? (down by the river)

Get on my knees and pray

Gonna talk it out (down by the river)

What it's all about? (down by the river)

Not a shadow of a doubt. (down by the river)

Oh thank you, Lord, I'm saved

Get on my knees and pray (gonna talk about it)

Thank you, Lord, I'm saved (gonna talk about it – down by the river)

Get on my knees and pray (gonna talk about it)

Thank you, Lord, I'm saved (let's go down – down by the river – river)

River

You may have a high or low opinion of yourself

Either way don't think that you're above nobody else

Well, there's all kinds of right or wrong we're all gonna do

Keep in mind there comes a time when it will be asked of you

Say where ya been? (down by the river)

Are ya goin' again? (down by the river)

What ya gonna do then? (down by the river)

Get on my knees and pray

Gonna talk it out (down by the river)

What it's all about? (down by the river)

Not a shadow of a doubt (down by the river)

Thank you, Lord, I'm saved

Tell me where ya been? (down by the river)

Are ya goin' again? (down by the river)

What ya gonna do then? (down by the river)

Get on my knees and pray

Gonna talk it out. (down by the river)

What's it all about? (down by the river)

Not one shadow of a doubt. (down by the river)

Oh, thank you, Lord, I'm saved

Gonna talk it out. (down by the river)

What's it all about? (down by the river)

Not a shadow of a doubt. (down by the river)

Oh, thank you, Lord, I'm saved

Thank you, Lord, I'm saved

Thank you Lord

Well… well…Thank you, Lord, I'm saved
