Down by the Riverside Songtext
von Playing for Change feat. Keb’ Mo’, Preservation Hall Jazz Band & Grandpa Elliott

I′m gonna lay down my burden
Down by the riverside
Down by the river
Down by the riverside
I'm gonna lay down my burden

Down by the riverside
Study war no more
I ain′t gonna study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more, no more
I ain't gonna sudy study war no more

Study war no more
Study war no more
Laid down my sword and sheild
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside


I gonna lay down my sword and sheild
Down by the riverside
Study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more

Study war no more
Study war no more, no more
I ain′t gonna study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more

I′m gonna lay donw my burden
In the hand of Jesus!
In the hand of Jesus!
In the hand of Jesus!
I'm gonna lay down my burden

In the hand of Jesus!
Then I won′t stress no more!
I ain't gonna study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more


Study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more
I′m gonna put on my long white robe
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside

Down by the riverside
I'm gonna put on my long white robe
Down by the riverside
Study war no more
I ain′t gonna study war no more

Study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
Study war no more

I ain't gonna study war no more
Study war no more
Study war no more, no more
I ain′t gonna study war no more
Study war no more
