Lord, lord, lord, I’d jump right into the river and drown
If I thought I’d see her smiling at me
Doo doo, etc.
Lord, lord, lord, I’d jump right into the river and drown
If I thought I’d see her smiling at me
Doo doo, etc.
And if I thought by playing possum
I might make her come up closer
She might even roll me over
And look into my eyes
Yes, if I thought by playing possum
I might make her come up closer
If she’d only roll me over
I could hold my breath until I heard the saints go –
Until the saints go, until the saints go
Doo doo, etc.
Lord, lord, lord, I’d lay right down in the middle of the road
If I thought I’d hear her laugh in my ear
Doo doo, etc.
