Down South LDR

Verse 1

When the fire's out

When your faith has run dry

Tell you 'bout some saints and godforsaken towns

There ain't no church down south

There ain't no church down there at all

Verse 2

When your soul's been sold

When the devil comes knockin' on your door, say

"Come on in, sir, have a seat, the coffee's poured"

'Cause if there's Hell down there

I'll just die when I hit the floor

Chorus

This God damn world

We built you up to tear us down

This God damn world

Don't make me beg you not to go

Verse 3

You say you want my love

But honey, you just want my soul

You can have my body

But God is my only one

You say you need my love

Well, honey, you don't need it at all

You got your money and your fame

You got your big ol' car

Verse 4

So tell the priest I'm gone

And tell the boys I'm goin' outta town

Don't you worry 'bout me, daddy

I'll be fine down south

'Cause if there's Heaven up above

Well, they don't need another angel now

Chorus

This God damn world

We built you up to tear us down

This God damn world

Don't make me beg you not to go

Bridge

Take me down, I'll show you something

Take your hands off of my God

I'll take a ride down to the river

To wash away all of my sin

Take me down, down, down to the river

Wash me clean in the water

(Clean in the water, clean in the water)

Chorus

Take me down, I know just what you want

It's this God damn world

We built you up to tear us down

This God damn world

Outro

Down, down, down

Down, down, down

Down, down, down

Down, down, down

Down, down, down
