Riverbed

Riverbed be soft
Be a soft landing
Riverbed be soft
Be a soft landing
Especially for a friend
Who committed a sin
Where your papa got laid in his grave
So if this river carries evil away
Wonder why you shiver
At mistakes you made
Guess the river will always stay
Running through your veins
Down by the river
Saw the preacher rape
Down by the river
Saw power take
And it was down by the river
You know the cause was to break
And that no man speaks for god
And it was down by the river
You first lost a love
And it was down by the river
You realized love is ******
And it was down by the river
You knew you'd never catch up
There's just something
You don't trust
So if this river
Carries evil away
Why do I shiver at mistakes I've made
I guess this river will always stay
Running through my veins
And it was down by the river
