Lyrics
Chorus 1
I killed a man in the river
Yeah I watched the current carry him away
Yeah I killed a man, down in the river
Yeah I had to take a life to keep one out the grave
Verse 1
He was friends with the devil, wasn’t worth a dang
Tried to drown me in a bottle, tried to choke me on smoke
He was hurtin my momma, had my ol' man
Prayin like a preacher at the end of his rope
It was justified, it was self defense, it was do or die, it was me or him
Verse 2
Didn’t pull no knife, didn’t fire no gun
Just held him under long enough to put him down
Nobody’s gonna miss that prodigal son
He’s probably halfway down the Mississippi by now
Went from guilty as sin, to covered in blood, now who I am ain’t who I was
Bridge
Wiping muddy water outa my eyes, that’s the day that I saw the light
Bout 6 feet out in the Buffalo was my Damascus road
Chorus 2
I killed a man in the river
Yeah I watched the current carry him away
Yeah I killed a man, down in the river
Yeah I had to take a life to keep one out the grave
Sometimes ya gotta take a life to keep one out the grave
End
He was friends with the devil, wasn’t worth a dang
Tried to drown me in a bottle, tried to choke me on smoke...
