Lyrics

I’m going down to the river,
Get baptized, going get baptized,
I’m going down to the river,
Get baptized, going get baptized,
Yeah, going get baptized
I’m way, way down south
Change my life, gotta change life.
I’m gonna stop drinking and fighting,
Gotta get right, gotta get right,
I’m gonna stop my drinking and fight,
Yeah gotta get right, gotta get right.
I’m going way , way down south
Change my life, gotta change life.
I’m gonna lay my burdens down,
Got to make that change, yeah I gotta make that change.
I’m gonna lay all my burdens down,
I gotta make that change, gotta make that change.
I’m going way, way down south
Gotta get right, yeah I got to get right.
Get right now,
Solo
Now you can tell, everybody I done got baptized,
Yes I did,
I went down to the river, I done got baptized,
Yes I did.
On the darkest day, on the darkest night,
The darkest hour, had to chance my life.
Went down to the river, the mighty mighty river
And got baptized, gotta get right.
Oh yeah, gotta get right,
Gotta change my life.
Gotta get right,
Gotta turn around
Gotta change my life,
Yeah gotta get it right.
