Somebody told me, I know where to go
Somebody showed me, I was last to know

Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river

What I wanted, is what I wanted
What I wanted is what she wanted

Unfriendly feelings, down on wounded knee
Unfriendly reasons, some blind mother's need

Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river
Sell me down the river

What I wanted, is what I wanted
What I wanted is what she wanted

You read the words and it sells you life
They sell their words, but it's all a lie
