Sold Me Down the River lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a fire beneath my skin
There's a fever that makes me ill
Got a love, a love that kills
I got twenty-four hours to live

[Pre-Chorus]
Come back, I'm begging you, please come back
Come back, I'm down on my knees
Come back, I'm begging you, please

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Come back, I'm begging you, please come back
Come back, I'm down on my knees
Come back, I'm begging you, please
[Chorus]
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
Oh, yeah, sold me down the river now

[Bridge]
Sold me down the river, yeah
Woo, woo
Ooh, ooh
I got twenty-four, yeah

[Chorus]
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, sold me
Sold me down the river
Sold me, sold me
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
Sold me down the river
Sold me down the river
