Said I’m sorry Didn’t want to go away But my love was not true There was no way I could stay Tell me deep water How many lies have you told? Broken fools are just like me And the lives you’ve floated out to sea So, throw my body in the river Somebody baptize me Throw my body in the river Let the water wash me clean So, throw my body in the river Won’t the devil let me be? Cause when my body’s gone You can sing my songs Just don’t forget about me I’m singin’ Ooh, ooh, ahh Ooh, ooh Now I went walkin’ Late the other night With no direction Nothing left for me to fight So, baby, tell me Where does it all end Soon as the sun comes up We start all over again So, throw my body in the river Somebody baptize me Throw my body in the river Let the water wash me clean So throw my body in the river Won’t the devil let me be? Cause when my body’s gone You can sing my songs Just don’t forget about me I’m singin’ I don’t know where this went all wrong I said my head is aching And I’ve waited for far too long So baby tell me How does our story end?
