Lyrics

Ooh, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I'll be down by the river
Waiting for the good Lord to pass my way, oh yeah
I'll be down by the river, yeah
Singing songs of joy on this lovely day, oh yeah
[Bridge]
Three singing birds told me
By sunrise He's always there in the morning
Praying and blessing the day
[Verse 1]
I've heard about this little tale long time ago
But never had the faith to believe in my soul, yeah
Now mother nature sent to me three little birds
Singing a song convincing me it was so
[PreChorus]
Now I'm on my way
Anyone come to see me this day
Tell them I'll be gone for the day
[Chorus]
I'll be down by the river, yeah
Waiting for the good Lord to pass my way, oh yeah
I'll be down by the river, yeah
Singing songs of joy on this lovely day, oh yeah
Ooh-oh
[Verse 2]
I've heard about this tales long time ago
But never had the faith to believe in my soul, yeah-yeah
How mother nature sent to me three little birds
Singing a song, singing with soul
[PreChorus]
Now I'm on my way
Anyone come to see me this day
Tell them I'll be gone for the day
[Chorus]
I'll be down by the river, yeah
Waiting for the good Lord to pass my way, oh yeah
I'll be down by the river, yeah
Singing songs of joy on this lovely day
Oh, this lovely day
[Outro]
(I'll be down by the river)
Singing songs of joy, oh, oh yeah
(I'll be down by the river)
