Down to the River

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way!

O brothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on brothers let's go down
Down in the river to pray

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way!

O mothers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on mothers let's go down
Down in the river to pray

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way!

O fathers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on fathers let's go down
Down in the river to pray

Alternate lyrics -

As I went down to the Springs to pray
Studying about that good old way
And who shall get to swim around
 Good Lord, show me the way

O lovers let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O lovers let's go down
Down to the Springs to pray

As I went down to city hall to say

We don’t need your Zilker Plan no way

Let’s preserve the trees and birdie sounds

Good Lord show them the way

Come on Austin let's go down

Let's go down, c'mon down

Come on Austin lets go down

Down to the Springs to pray

As we went down to the Springs to pray

We don’t want parking garages no way

What are we thinking digging underground

Good Lord show them the way

Cmon city council let’s go down

Let's go down, c'mon down

Come on city council let's go down

Down to the Springs to pray

As we went down to city hall to say

We don’t need no amphitheater anyway

We want green space, not ACL year round…

Good Lord show them the way

Come on Live Nation let's go down

Let's go down, c'mon down

Come on Live Nation let's go down

Down to the Springs to pray

As we went down to the Springs to pray

The water heals me everyday

the heart and soul jewel in Austin’s crown

Good lord show us the way

Come on Sisters let’s go down

Let's go down, c'mon down

Come on Brothers let's go down

Down to the Springs to pray
