I went down to the river,
I set down on the bank.
I tried to think but couldnât,
So I jumped in and sank.
I came up once and hollered!
I came up twice and cried!
If that water hadnât a-been so cold
I mightâve sunk and died.
But it was Cold in that water! It was cold!
I took the elevator
Sixteen floors above the ground.
I thought about my baby
And thought I would jump down.
I stood there and I hollered!
I stood there and I cried!
If it hadnât a-been so high
I mightâve jumped and died.
But it was High up there! It was high!
So since Iâm still here livinâ,
I guess I will live on.
I couldâve died for loveâ
But for livinâ I was born
Though you may hear me holler,
And you may see me cryâ
Iâll be dogged, sweet baby,
If you gonna see me die.
Life is fine! Fine as wine! Life is fine!
