Viewing lyrics for Go to the River by Laura Ault.

You never make a bed that you use
You don’t believe in God or Voodoo
You have an answer for everything
You can’t break a heart if there’s no feeling

go the the river, wash out your lies
You can’t walk on water so full of pride
when you start sinking don’t be surprised
no one can float with a stone inside

You have your pick of many flavors
they even think that you’re a savior (ha ha ha)
but soon enough the sky will fall
and I’ll be standing by as you learn to crawl

go the the river, wash out your lies
You can’t walk on water so full of pride
when you start sinking don’t be surprised
no one can float with a stone inside

Come on honey, it’s on tonight
I will take you, to the riverside
Come on honey, do what your told
Don’t be dirty, it’s time to wash your soul
it’s time to wash that dirty dirty soul, yea

go the the river, wash out your lies
You can’t walk on water so full of pride
when you start sinking don’t be surprised
no one can float with a stone inside

go the the river, wash out your lies
You can’t walk on water so full of pride
when you start sinking don’t be surprised
no one can float with a stone inside
