[Chorus]
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, yeah
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, yeah

[Verse 1]
I went deep down into that river now
I rose up, I felt that sun beat down upon this sinner's face
Yeah, yeah
And I went deep down in that water now
I rose up, I felt that sun beat down upon my face
Yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, yeah, yeah
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Here we go!
So then I smash up the palace like the son of Samson
Hollering louder than all of Bedlam
Take me to higher ground
Then bury my body six feet down
[Verse 2]
And I walked forty miles out into that desert now
Wailed and moaned 'til the lion, he called my name
Yeah
And he said that Old Ship of Zion
Is taking way, way out, out into outer space
Yeah
Yeah

[Chorus]
And he said
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, oh yeah
Here we go, here we go, here we go
Oh yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
I climbed the highest of the heights
Atop that mountain, I watched the day turn into night
Oh, I tell you, I was a wretched sight
But I stood long and hard until the light
Rubbing needles in my eyes
Eating dirt
I stood up
And everything was alright
[Chorus]
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, yeah
Everything gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
Here we go!
But then I smash up the palace like the son of Samson
Hollering louder than all of Bedlam
Take me to higher ground
Then bury my body six feet down
