"Sold Me Down The River" Lyrics

There's a fire beneath my skin
There's a fever that makes me ill
Got a love, a love that kills
I've got twenty four hours to live

Come back
I'm begging you please, come back
Come back, I'm down on my knees
Come back, I'm begging you please

I don't know why, I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why, I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
Sold me down the river

There's a rose across my chest
Got your name written on it
Love's the drug that I live by
Give me a shot before I die

Come back
I'm begging you please, come back
Come back, I'm down on my knees
Come back, I'm begging you please

I don't know why, I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
I don't know why, I don't understand
How you sold me down the river
Sold me down the rive
