Verse 1
There’s a feast going on and you wouldn’t even know about it
A fights breaking out and they’ll make a damn meal out of it
There’s so much going wrong but I can’t waste my time on things that won’t change

Verse 2
I’m a cool headed man but this one’s got the best of me
I see reason and rhyme but someone stole my melodies
Maybe I should write a strongly worded letter
But the sensible side of me says I should know better

Chorus
Take me down to the riverside
Show me good loving and a damn good time
Lord knows we need it
Lord knows it’s leaving
Take me down and show me life
I’m feeling outdated I could use a new fight
Lord knows we need it

Lord knows we’re hanging out to dry
Hanging out to dry
Oh Lord well we’re hanging it out to dry

Verse 3
Finding reasons to lie like it’s good for your shaken Soul
Feeling twisted inside and you know just who’s at fault
If you can’t fix the world then fix the people who surround your mighty throne

Chorus
Take me down to the riverside
Show me good loving and a damn good time
Lord knows we need it
Lord knows it’s leaving
Take me down and show me life
I’m feeling outdated I could use a new fight
Lord knows we need it

Lord knows we’re hanging out to dry
Hanging out to dry
Oh Lord well we’re hanging it out to dry

Bridge
I’m taking two steps forward and one step back
Never seen a happy man who ran a dead straight path
Turns and twists and shaking hips and moments to be kept
Take it all in my friend you ain’t seen nothing yet

Chorus
Take me down to the riverside
Show me good loving and a damn good time
Lord knows we need it
Lord knows it’s leaving
Take me down and show me life
I’m feeling outdated I could use a new fight
Lord knows we need it

Lord knows we’re hanging out to dry
Hanging out to dry
Oh Lord well we’re hanging it out to dry
