Lyrics

You're sweet like a river
Hot like a desert sun (x2)
You said that you loved me 
Child you're not the only one
 
Goin' down to the river
Lord, I'm gonna jump right in (x2)
When I get down to the river 
Gonna see if all my troubles can swim
 
I'm low like the devil
I'm high like an old oak tree (x2)
If you try to get closer 
You'll just get farther from me
 
Sometimes I wonder
If the good Lord will save my soul (x2)
The sky up above me
Is blacker than a chunk of coal
 
I love my good gal
You know I love my whiskey rye (x2)
Never treat me low-down
Love me till I'm satisfied
