Help me escape from this deserted sea

Lord I think that the devil might be after me

I don′t want to waste my integrityI just a man livin' a one night stand, I tell you what you need

Oh, black creek, take me to the place

Wash my sins away

Oh, black creek, take me to the place

Wash my sins away

Just a little taste, that′s all I need

Fruitful harvest in a wicked garden off a forbidden tree

A simple scheme from judging fate

Simple as it may be, it's more than I can take

Oh, black creek, take me to the place

Wash my sins away

Oh, black creek, take me to the place

Wash my sins away

Guitar man, play me a tune

I got one foot tappin' and nothing to lose I′m lose

I don′t what to be found

The end for me could be comin' real soon

I′d like a glass of tea mixed with a sassafras root and a bread of higher ground

Oh, black creek, take me to the place

Wash my sins away

Oh, black creek, take me to the place

Wash my sins away, won't you wash my sins away
