Delta Rae - Bottom Of The River Lyrics
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down
(The cock's gonna call in the morning, baby)
Check the cupboard for your daddy's gun
(Red sun rises like an early warning)
The Lord's gonna come for your first born son
(His hair's on fire and his heart is burning)
So go to the river where the water runs
(Wash him deep where the tides are turning)
And if you fall...
And if you fall...
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down
The wolves will chase you by the pale moonlight
(Drunk and driven by a devil's hunger)
Drive your son like a railroad spike
(Into the water, let it pull him under)
Don't you lift him, let him drown alive
(The good Lord speaks like a rolling thunder)
Let that fever make the water rise
(And let the river run dry)
And I said
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down to the bottom of the river
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way, a long long long way
Hold my hand
Ooh, baby, it's a long way down, a long way down
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
Hold my hand, long way down, to the bottom of the
Hold my hand, it's a long way down, a long way down
Hold my hand, ooh baby, it's a long way down
Hold my hand, ooh baby, it's a long way down
Hold my hand, ooh baby, it's a long
Hold my hand, ooh baby, it's a long way down, a long way down

Delta Rae Bottom Of The River Comments
At what point did she take control?! Was it when the screen shook? When she reached the tree? So good!! 😫😂👏👏
I totally got that the great song was about witches.. did you not see that she got the witch hunters in the end?
wow.. didn't notice her reflection didn't turn around till someone said.. had to watch it over and over.
2020
Still a great song
Not today, Death!
Damn that's one powerful voice!
Videos do not do this band justice. They are so powerful live! The only way to realize the talent!
DEATH BLART has given me so much
Why can't a voice or song just be awesome!?! Not every little thing needs to analyzed! Enjoy life! 😂
Funny how I found this song through a podcast about Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2, but I'm glad I found it! I've been listening to this nonstop and she has a fantastic voice!
A lot of comments on here are about salem however i would say she more accurately portrays the white lady urban legend which explains the black eyes the body's left in her wake and the reflection in he mirror not moving not only that but when reading into the lyrics is makes much more sense
Is anyone else here because of till death do we blart?
Yes! Not today, death!
Mafia III
Damn I feel in love with this song and lost it. Finally found it again.
Okay first of all, how the hell does this only have 6 million views?! Fuckin’ HOW??!!
Secondly, this is...wow, holy shit, it’s short ( perhaps too short ) but oh my, it’s amazing.
And lastly, thank you to Mafia 3 for introducing me to this incredible song and this band, whose other music I will now go and look up.
damn she killed the 3 now the light follows her
My fellow witches, wiccans, and sorcerers meet together and sing this during ur full moon. Blessed be
Everyone here before better come backk...this song with forever be amazing.❤️
A shame the rest of their songs are poppy trash...
Happy Halloween everyone.. 😈
ive been looking for this song for YEARS and i finally found it again by far one of my favorites
Pretty sure I saw this on MTV. And every once in a while this song plays in my head.
Who else is here because of Mafia 3 🤔

2019 😍
Her voice is crazy good
Im still wondering what the masked men mean ive got 2 theroys
1 they are deamons aiding her in bewiching the townsfolk into singing themselfs to death
2 the ones with the red mask are towns folk that support her and the black masks want to kill her
“Red sun rising is an early warning, the LORD’s coming for your first born son” this song was definitely written about end-time slavery and the video is about “the witch hunt”
ended too soon. god damn witches....
Underrated 🔮
Haven't heard this in forever.
Love this song and video.

Let's be honest, Delta Rae is underrated
Not one colored person. You ask me that a bit racist
You're kidding right? This isn't about colored people. She's literally being burned at the stake. It's about the Salem trails.
Ped Dead ?
This is now one of my favorite music videos!
Smooth voice
I saw that vid when I was like 7 and I tried for years to find it😭❤️
Holy shit this song I been trying to look for years
masterpeice 100
i am... gay
I wish Delta Rae did more songs based on dark history. I would love it if they did a song about being beheaded(if that doesn’t sound gruesome lol)
friggin genius. from the hair blowing against the wind fronted to..... Your turn
You have no idea how much I've been searching and trying to remember this video. They only played it once on MTV when I was like 11 and I'm almost 17 now. I'm soooooo happy now wow
Lexi Ward literally same!! I remember getting dressed for school and it playing on MTV and me being obsessed with it for awhile and then totally forgetting about it. And I searched for it over and over again for months! I finally found it today.
Soooooo... anyone else that really wants to learn that clapping sequence that the background dancers are doing? No? Just me? Being weird again? Okay....
YouTube black Greek stepping
Mafia 3 brought me here; it is what it is
Who is listening in 2019✌👀
Oh look I found another one of my loyal cultists I hope they are doing well.
Holy fuck she looks like me
That's wierd
0:18 defective mirror
Cause she's a with 😏
Anyone else look at this and think "who the flip chops wood at night!?" 😂
I swear I know a band that uses their damn music. Wish I could tell them
Guns will bust
Of all songs I sing with no music around; this, THIS song always is at the top of my tongue ready to go always. Her voice is magic.
I love this song 💞
Don't get it? Watch hocus pocus. XD
Swifties are always with you! Love you!!
Thanks for supportting Taylor🍃
awesome song
The blacklist season 6 episode 4 🔥
0:18 Her reflection in the mirror being its own individual is such creative genius. I have never seen that done before ❤️😃
This is fire 🔥🔥🔥💯🏁💙
Everyone mentioning the reflection, what about the damn cuffs! They had no idea what the hell was about to happened to them. Secondly, the song is amazing! Was this a chant or a story being told! Im in awe!
Blacklist
reminds me the 1960s black ppl songs
this song should be connected to Hunt Showdown somehow
When it comes to videos I would much rather see a live performance of the song than some meaningless sequences that only distract from the song. This video though.., works. Makes me like the song (though a shortened version) that much more.
*Mafia 3* 😍
She reminds me of Callisto from Xena! ❤
Jess9191 made an epic Game of Thrones video with this song! Fits so perfectly! Go check it out
Just your casual satanic witchcraft illuminati video
You say it, like it's a bad thing.
@wild at heart Lol it's not bad in the current upside down world we live in now to be honest lol
I'm just trying to figure out how satanism, witchcraft, and the illuminati all go together
Look at her reflection in the mirror😲
Listening to this in 2019. I can't believe that this is the first time I've heard this song.
Come because of the blacklist.. Stayed because I don't want to do my homework
The just used this song in an episode of The Blacklist!
Oh, and I don't think this song is about the Salem witch trials. It's about witch trials. Salem isn't the only place witches were hanged. And Salem is much farther north than the style of this song. Witches were accused in every place in every time, even today.
I would like to add that while my first assumption that the two working for her were demons, there is also the possibility that they are witches too, as witches in the South were said to have black eyes. Witchcraft also is open to both men and women, but thanks to sexism it has been assigned to women, which could be why the male witches in the story never seem to be in any danger. No believes they could be capable of witchcraft, but they are.
See this is what would have happened if even one of them were a real witch.
Nothing like killing white womenfolk
Oh shit
Her reflection didn’t turn when they came to get her lol
Satan take the wheel
Take it from my hands
The funs of the blacklist☝️
The Blacklist led me here!
Blacklist music
I was under the impression that this was written about post partum depression?
Loving this song. I have the lyrics memorize lolz
They used the wrong lanterns for this video for the look they were going for
