CHORUS:
Satan's got a [A]river, deep and wide
Yes Satan's got a [D]river, and it's so deep and [A]wide
He's got folks a-[E]swimmin' in the [D]warm, smoo[A]th tide
But someday Satan's river, it's gonna run dry
What was a smooth river, hot lava will make the tide
Stay clear of Satan's river, heaven's on either side
CHORUS
SOLO
Big yachts are sailing Satan's river, so smooth
Never stoppin' nor thinkin' 'bout God's golden rule
When the river starts sinkin', they'll cry I've been a fool
CHORUS (2x)
OUTRO: E A E A E A
