Golden Gate Quartet - Down by the River Side

I'm going to lay down my burden down
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I'm going to lay down my burden down
Down by the riverside
Study war no more (no more)

I ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more

I'm going to lay down my burden down
Down by the riverside (well)
Down by the riverside (well)
Down by the riverside
I'm going to lay down my burden down
Down by the riverside
Study war no more (no more)

I ain't gonna study war no more (oh no, no, no)
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more (whoa)
I ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more

I'm gonna lay down my sword and shield
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I'm gonna lay down my sword and shield
Down by the riverside
Study war no more (no more)

Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more

I'm gonna try on my long white robe
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
I'm gonna try on my long white robe
Down by the riverside
Study war no more (no more)

Well, I'm gonna lay down my sword and shield
No more fighting in the battlefield
Stick my sword in the golden sand
Down by the river I will stand
Then I'll shine up the golden armor
No more fighting in this land
Ain't gonna study war no more (no more)

Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
Ain't gonna study war no more
I ain't gonna study war no more (no-no-no-no)
Ain't gonna study war no more (no-no-no-no)
Ain't gonna study war no more
