River Side

Verse 1

Saturday morning took the long way home

Dust on my boots from the road I roam

Saw her window lit like a candle flame

I been gone three weeks but I know that name

Pre-Chorus

Ooh baby won't you let me in

I got love enough to start again

Chorus

Come on down to the river side

Let the water wash this hurt away

Come on down where the willows cry

I'll be standing here till the end of day

Verse 2

Passed the corner store where we used to meet

Old man Johnson still tapping his feet

Ain't nothing changed but the years gone by

And the ache I carry when I look at the sky

Pre-Chorus

Ooh baby won't you let me in

I got love enough to start again

Chorus

Come on down to the river side

Let the water wash this hurt away

Come on down where the willows cry

I'll be standing here till the end of day

Bridge

Every mile I walked was a prayer I said

Every turn I took led me back to your bed

Won't you take my hand and forgive my wrong

We can hum a tune till the morning song

Chorus

Come on down to the river side

Let the water wash this hurt away

Come on down where the willows cry

I'll be standing here till the end of day

Outro

Till the end of day

(End of day)

Till the end of day
