Where Prisoners Drown
[Verse 1]
Looks like rain today
Gonna be, gonna be my lucky day
Oh, that river's runnin' high, bless my soul
Well, I think I'm gonna slide away
Nobody looks for a nobody
No one will notice I'm even gone
So pick me up on the corner
We'll leave the fools behind
[Chorus]
Oh, run me down (Run me down)
Down to the river (Down to the river)
Where prisoners drown (Prisoners drown)
And we can both jump in together
Run me down (Run me down)
I want this soul delivered
I'll show how you how (Show you how)
We can both stay young forever
Goodbye good
Goodbye good
I'm goin' in
So run me down
[Verse 2]
Wanted you for days
Pretty sure, pretty sure you feel the same
Oh, that river's running fast
If we jump together you'll get half the blame, mm
Come with me, come with me
Come and have some fun with me
Nothing like you ever known
I'll be on the corner
Are you ready for the ride?
[Chorus]
Oh, run me down (Run me down)
Oh, down to the river (Down to the river)
Where prisoners drown (Prisoners drown)
And we can both jump in together
Run me down (Run me down)
I want this soul delivered
I'll show how you how (Show you how)
And we can both stay young forever
Goodbye good
Oh, goodbye good
I'm goin' in
[Post-Chorus]
(So run me down) Run me down
(So run me down) Mm mm
[Chorus]
Oh, run me down
Down to the river
Where prisoners drown
And we can both jump in together
Run me down
I want this soul delivered
I'll show how you how
We can both stay young forever
(Goodbye good) Goodbye good
(Goodbye good) Goodbye good
I'm goin' in
(So run me down)
