lyrics
She said "Follow me down to the Riverside
I promise I won't push you in
We'll drink two or three bottles of wine, maybe
And talk about some of your sins
So, how does it feel to be the man?
I'm gonna take what you done into my own hands"
I looked into to her eyes, oh my god, to my surprise
She has made some other plans
"If you don't pray, you better start now
Cuz I won't wait around for you
Don't blame me I'm sorry, you know how I get
I'm searching for a good man, I haven't found him yet"
She fired three shots into my chest
I clutched and then I fell and then I wept
I thought 'Here I'm gonna die by the riverside"
How did I get here, what a mess
I heard her crying as she walked away
And I was surprised she was so sad
I said "Baby, I ain't dead I'm hanging on here by a thread"
She said "I'm sorry that I shot you, I was so mad"
"If you don't pray, you better start now
Cuz I won't wait around for you
Don't blame me I'm sorry, you know how I get
I'm searching for a good man, I haven't found him yet"
Follow me down to the riverside
She stood there with regret, so it appears
And I am feeling mighty cold, yet cavalier
She bent down, I pulled her arm to the ground
And we rolled into the river and disappeared
"Well I don't pray, and I won't start now
And I won't say I knew this would ever go down somehow
Don't blame me I'm sorry, I know how you get
While you're searching for a good man, forever here we'll rest"
