It was just a about a mile behind the "Sunset Strip"
They found the young girl's body in an open pit
A hole in her body and her eyes still open wide
Gazing through the fog to the other side

So I made no mistake, I know just what it takes
To pull a man's soul back from the devil's gate
I've been wandering in the dark about as long as time
But they say it's never too late to start again

White river washes me clean again
Clean my soul and take away the pain, oh
White river washes me clean again
So the keys to heaven will be mine again

I took a bus down to the next stop ahead
And I shot a man down lying on his bed
Then I stole me a car, I drove around the town
Till the cops pulled me over and sat me down

It was dark as in a grave, it was just 'bout three
When the warden with his key came to set me free
Well the sheriff let me go, no proof for me to stay
He says it's never too late to change your way

White river washes me clean again
Clean my soul and take away the pain, oh
White river washes me clean again
So the keys to heaven will be mine again

Then I went to the river to take a swim
And I washed myself clean like a man who has never sinned
But there's something inside me, a semen of hate
That makes me pick up this stone to sharpen my blade

White river washes me clean again
Clean my soul and take away the pain, oh
White river washes me clean again
So the keys to heaven will be mine again
