Lyrics

Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, well, it's (crowded)
 Yes, it is (crowded)
 Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, with unbelieving souls
 Young people who delight in sin (ooh)
 Telling you what (crowded) I've plainly seen (ooh)
 Poor and godless (crowded) woman died (ooh)
 She didn't have Jesus (crowded) on her side (ooh) well
 She laughed and played her (crowded) time away and (ooh)
 Still put off her (crowded) dying day (ooh)
 Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, well it's (crowded) yes, it is (crowded)
 Yeah, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, with unbelieving souls
 The Lord God almighty had his plans all fixed (ooh)
 Friday morning (crowded) the woman took sick
 Well she called her mother (crowded) to her room to listen to her dying dooms (ooh, crowded)
 Your prayers are lost (crowded) you pray for me
 My soul is doomed (crowded) I can plainly see
 So mother and father (crowded) fair thee well
 Your wicked daughter's doomed to hell
 Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, well, it's (crowded) oh, yeah (crowded)
 Yeah, the downward road is crowded
 Oh, with unbelieving souls
 Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, well it's (crowded)
 Yeah (crowded)
 Oh, the downward road is (crowded)
 Oh, with unbelieving souls
 With unbelieving souls
 Crowded with unbelieving souls
