Take me to the river baby drink my wine

When I'm going down won't you throw me a line

Lead me to religion take me up them stairs

When I take a tumble will you say me some prayers



When will you show me a sign

When will you throw me a line



Help me to the answer baby set me free

I'm torn between the devil and the deep blue sea

Maybe if you wanted you could save my face

Keep me out of trouble and I'm a living disgrace



Show me to a sucker and you'll see my name

Standing in a line with the shadows of fame

Lead me to a legend take me up them stairs

When I take a tumble will you say me some prayers
