Way Down South

Waters pulling you under and the river don't stop

Are we sinking or swimming

Better make your mind up

Been running from the law in the Alabama sun

With the dogs on our trail theres nowhere left to run

Nowhere left to run

So we'll float on the river for a while

Let it carry us, let it carry us

Way down south

Like Bonnie and Clyde you were trouble from the jump

One night on the town turn a statewide manhunt

Up to our elbows in problems, off to the races in love

Got the money in the bag now, hold tight so we don't get dragged down

Don't you drag me down

So we'll float on the river for a while

Let it carry us, let it carry us

Way down south

We'll be crossing the border when the night comes

I know my Spanish is lacking but money speaks in every tongue

To everyone

Keep your head above water baby, keep treading that water

Keep your head above water baby, keep treading now, keep treading now

Float on the river for a while

Float on the river for a while

Let it carry us, let it carry us

Way down south

Way down south

Waters pulling you under and the river don't stop

The river don't stop

Waters pulling you under and the river don't
