Just to Keep from Drowning Joe Cocker

I went down to the river
Just to see if it would rain
I looked down in the water
I could not believe my eyes
A face and a reflection
Was staring back at me ahah
And it scares me just to think
About the power that this woman has on me

Just to keep from drowning
I get down on my knees to pray
Just to keep from drowning
I'll do anything you say
Help me now
Help me now

It rained the day I met her
I should have known that was a sign
But I couldn't see the weather
That woman almost made me blind
I wanted her to love me
Now all I want is to be free
And it scares me just to think
About the power that this woman has on me

Just to keep from drowning
I'll do anything I can
Just to keep from drowning
Lord I need a helping hand
Help me now
Help me now
