Can't take much more of this heat,
You got the water, and I got the need,
I feel a thirst in my soul,
I'm burning up from my head to toe.

You gotta help me out; you know I'm down on my knees,
I'm holding on to you, you gotta help me, mister, please.

Come on and take me to the river, carry me down,
Take me to the river; gotta make it somehow,
I'm feeling kinda tired, and it's a long way down,
Take me to the river before I drown,
Come on, hey, hey, come on, hey.

Feel like I'm breathing my last,
I'm going down, and I'm sinking fast,
There ain't a moment to waste,
When I close my eyes, I can almost taste.

I'm down-right busted and I'm down on my luck,
I'm coming back to you, you know I just can't get enough.

You gotta take me to the river, carry me down,
Take me to the river; gotta make it somehow,
I'm feeling kinda bad, and it's a long way down,
Take me to the river before I drown,
Yeah, hey, hey, alright.

I hear you calling, and I'm about to heed, it's alright,
I'll get that water washing over me 'til it's alright.

I'm down-right busted and I'm down on my luck,
I'm coming back to you, you know I just can't get enough.

You gotta take me to the river, carry me down,
Take me to the river; I gotta make it somehow,
Feeling kinda tired, long way down, (it's a long way down)
Take me to the river before I drown, yeah,
Take me to the river, carry me down,
Take me to the river; I gotta make it somehow,
I'm feeling kinda tired, and it's a long way down,
Take me to the river, hey,
