I Aint Gwine Study War No More

Gwine to lay down my bur­den

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side;

Gwine to lay down my bur­den

Down by the riv­er­side

To stu­dy war no more.

I aint gwine stu­dy war no more

Aint gwine stu­dy war no more

Aint gwine stu­dy war no more;

Aint gwine stu­dy war no more

Aint gwine stu­dy war no more

Aint gwine stu­dy war no more!

Gwine to lay down my sword an’ shiel’

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side;

Gwine to lay down my sword an’ shiel’

Down by the riv­er­side

To stu­dy war no more.

Gwine to try on my long white robe

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side;

Gwine to try on my long white robe

Down by the riv­er­side

To stu­dy war no more.

Gwine to try on my star­ry crown

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side

Down by the riv­er­side;

Gwine to try on my star­ry crown

Down by the riv­er­side

To stu­dy war no more.
