river black - dillon james lyrics
[verse 1]
all this running with the devil
got a h*ll of a hold on me
and you can bet i got a debt i gotta settle
setting me free ain’t gonna come cheap
i’m just a rebel praying up to the stars
hoping one of them just might lead
to a river where a better life starts
gonna get dirty getting clean
[chorus]
all my rough ’round the edge
ain’t gonna be so rough no more
when the old me’s dead
i’ll be knock, knock, knocking on the good lord’s door
when the preacher man’s hands lower me in
and the holy water hits my back
all my sins gonna turn that river black
[verse 2]
whiskey and cigarette smoke breath
tattoos and blood on my hands
gold cross hanging on my chest
just as long as he understands, yeah, yeah, yeah
[chorus]
all my rough ’round the edge
ain’t gonna be so rough no more
when the old me’s dead
i’ll be knock, knock, knocking on the good lord’s door
when the preacher man’s hands lower me in
and the holy water hits my back
all my sins gonna turn that river black, yeah
[bridge]
i’m counting mississippis
lord, please forgive me
deep underwater where the devil can’t get me
i’m counting mississippis
lord, please forgive me
i’m deep underwater
[chorus]
all my rough ’round the edge
ain’t gonna be so rough no more
when the old me’s dead
i’ll be knock, knock, knocking on the good lord’s door
when the preacher man’s hands lower me in
and the holy water hits my back
all my sins gonna turn that river black
[outro]
river black
river black
(all my sins gonna turn that)
yeah, all my sins gonna turn that river black
