Gonna take my body down
Right down, down, down to the river
Gonna take my body down
Let the water carry me away
Just float away
Oh, oh

Bury all of my things
Bury me in my skin
All that I've done
Oh lord, I'm done

Who'd wanna be a king
Pulling too many strings
All that I've done
Oh lord, I'm done

Carry me away
I float away
In the river
Gonna lay my head right down

Right now, now, now and forever
Gonna lay my head right down
Let the water carry me away
Just float away

Bury all of my things
Bury me in my skin
All that I've done
Oh lord, I'm done

Who'd wanna be a king
Pulling too many strings
All that I've done
Oh lord, I'm done

Carry me away
I float away
In the river, oh, oh
In the river, oh, oh

In the river, oh, yeah
Bury all of my things
Bury me in my skin
All that I've done
Oh lord, I'm done

Who'd wanna be a king
Pulling too many strings
All that I've done
Oh lord, I'm done

Gonna take my body down
Right down, down
Down to the river
