Requested by Tru Neilson

5 5 6 1* 1*1*1*1*1* 1*
As I went down in the river to pray

2*2*2* 3* 2* 1* 3* 2* 1* 6
Studying about that good ol’ way

5 3 5 6 1* 6 1*
And who shall wear the starry crown

3* 2* 1* 1* 6 5
Good Lord, show me the way

2* 2* 1* 3* 5* 2* 1*
O sisters, let’s go down

3* 2* 1* 1*1* 6 5
Let’s go down, come on down

2* 2* 1* 3* 5* 2* 1*
O sisters, let’s go down
(O brothers, let’s go down)
(O fathers, let’s go down)
(O mothers, let’s go down)
(O sinners, let’s go down)

3* 2* 1*1*1* 6 5
Down in the river to pray

Repeat (4x)
