Текст песни: River + перевод

I’m gonna take my sins to the river, boy

Less the rain comes to wash them away

Breadcrumbs they float down the water

And the rivers gonna make me clean

Watch that muddy river risin'

Flood waters ain’t gonna drain

Drownin' my trees and my berries

Water rise to take me away

I’m gonna bury my sins by the river

It’s so easy to dig in the mud

Old boxes been tied up with watch chains

Let the river rise to make me clean

Now I’ll take my sins to the river

No time to wait for the rain

Takin' my sins to the river, boy

Muddy water gonna wash off the stain

Well I’ll share the sins of my brother

I know he’d do the same for me

There’s no boats out on the river today

Just breadcrumbs floatin' down the stream

I’m gon' take my sins to the river

As much water as its pesticide

From farms up on past the levee

Clean them bones with the rising tide

Ain’t no more bank to the river

Just flood as far as you can see

Dig out my shotgun and a box of 30-ought shells

Ain’t gonna wait for what might be

'Cause I buried my sins by the river

Dug down 6 feet in the mud

I took my sins to the river

For the water to carry the crumbs
