Gonna lay down my sword and shield
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna lay down my sword and shield
Down by the riverside
Ain’t gonna study war no more.

Refrain:
I ain’t gonna study war no more,
I ain’t gonna study war no more,
Study war no more.
I ain’t gonna study war no more,
I ain’t gonna study war no more,
Study war no more.

Gonna stick my sword in the golden sand;
Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna stick my sword in the golden sand
Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna put on my long white robe;
Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna put on my long white robe; Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna put on my starry crown; Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna put on my starry crown;
Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna put on my golden shoes; Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna put on my golden shoes;
Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna talk with the Prince of Peace; Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna talk with the Prince of Peace;
Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more.

Gonna shake hands around the world; Down By the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
Gonna shake hands around the worl
Down by the riverside
Gonna study war no more.
