Porter Wagoner
Satan’s River
[Chorus]
Satan's got river
Satan's got river deep and wide, so deep and wide
Satan's got a river and it's so deep and wide
And he's got folks a-swimming
He's got folks a swimming in the warm smooth tide

[Verse 1]
But some day Satan's river
Yes some day Satan's river is gonna run dry, it's gonna run dry
What was once a smooth river, hot lava will make the guide
Stay clear of Satan's river, heaven's on either side

[Verse 2]
Big yachts are sailing Satan's river so smooth
Never stopping or thinking about God's golden rule
When the river starts to sinking, they'll cry "I've been a fool"

[Chorus]
Satan's got river deep and wide
Satan's got river and it's so deep and wide
And he's got folks a-swimming in the warm smooth tide

Satan's got river deep and wide
Satan's got river and it's so deep and wide
And he's got folks a-swimming in the warm smooth tide
