by the church

Take me down to the riverside
Wash away the dirt and my pride
I got no, well I got no moon or sun
But baby, I ain't gonna run
​
Hold me over the gates of hell
And baby, I ain't gonna yell
​
Hey, hey oh, I may be running
But there ain't no fear anymore 
Hey oh, this house is burning
But I got one foot out the door
Hey oh, so take me down till my bones are raw
Bury me by the church tonight
​
Time's come, come now to sing my song
No matter, sweet sour right or wrong
'Cause my tears
Well they dried up with the drought
But baby, I ain't gonna shout
