Bones

Oh child, when you are weary

Weary deep down in your soul

Hear my voice rollin' like a river

I won't ever leave you alone, no, no, no, no no

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

Yesterday done came and gone

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

(Uh-huh, uh-huh)

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

Yesterday done came and gone (Whoa)

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Oh child, when you're in darkness

Them devils circlin' around

Don't you go thinkin' it's hopeless

Takes some gettin' lost to be found

Whoa

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

Yesterday done came and gone

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

(Whoa)

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

(Mm hm)

Yesterday done came and gone

(Whoa)

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water (Take me down)

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water

(Take me down, oh yes, so take them and go, wash me clean in the water)

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water (Bury them bones)

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

Yesterday done came and gone

(Aw, yeah)

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

(Take me down to the river)

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

(Wash me clean in the water)

Yesterday done came and gone (Whoa)

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Ain't no chain gonna hold you down

(Whoa)

Ain't no grave gonna hold you now

(Take me down, take me down)

Yesterday done came and gone

(Take me down to the river)

Ain't it time to bury them bones?

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water

Take me down to the river, wash me clean in the water
