I'll be down by the river
Waiting for the good Lord to pass my way, oh yeah
I'll be down by the river
Singing songs of joy on this lovely day, oh yeah yeah
Three singing birds told me
By sunrise he's always there in the morning, praying and Blessing the day
I've heard about this little tale long time ago
But never had the faith to believe in my soul, yeah
Now mother nature sent to me three little birds singing a song Convincing me it was so
Now I'm on my way, anyone come to see me this day
Tell them I'll be gone for the day
I'll be down by the river
Waiting for the good Lord to pass my way, oh yeah
I'll be down by the river
Singing songs of joy on this lovely day, oh yeah, whoa ooo ooo
I've heard about this tale long time ago
But never had the faith to believe in my soul, yeah yeah
Now mother nature sent to me three little birds singing a song Saying it was so
Now I'm on my way, anyone come to see me this day
Tell them I'll be gone for the day
I'll be down by the river
Waiting for the good Lord to pass my way, oh yeah
I'll be down by the river
Singing songs of joy on this lovely day, on this lovely day
I'll be down by the river
Singing songs of joy, oh aiee ohahh
I'll be down by the river
Fade out
