[Verse 1]
There's blood in the water
Won't you cut me down?
‘Cause people keep on talking
Won't you cut me down?
[Chorus]
Bobby Reid, won't you please cut me down?
[Verse 2]
Said I was a lover
Won't you cut me down?
My hands are growing colder
Won't you cut me down?
[Chorus]
Bobby Reid, won't you please cut me down?
Bobby Reid, won't you please cut me down?
[Bridge]
I only see your footprints stranded in the desert
Where I see you leaving, me on the horizon
Spare me all your loving, Bobby, won't you cut me down?
Down
[Verse 3]
Leave me if you love me
Won't you cut me down?
Or keep me if you want me
Won't you cut me down?
[Outro]
Bobby Reid, won't you please cut me down?
Bobby Reid, won't you please cut me down?
Bobby Reid, won't you please cut me
Down
