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
