Goin' down to the river jordan
Gonna ask to save my soul
Goin' down to the river jordan
Gonna ask to save my soul
Gonna get down on my knees
And there i'm gonna freeze
Goin' down to the river, to save my soul
Well, moses opened up the waters
And he let the people through
Well now, moses opened up the waters
And he let the people through
It was a windy day in the barrel of brown
When the walls came tumblin' down
Down to the river, to save my soul
Well, save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul
Goin' down to the river, to save my soul

Now listen brother henry, listen here to me
Forget about your jezebel and a-come-come-come with me
We'll go down to the river
We'll get down on our knees
And ask the lord to save our souls
Saviour save us please
Well, save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul
Goin' down to the river, to save my soul
(save my soul)
Save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul

Well now, save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, save my soul
Goin' down to the river, to save my soul
