The River (Live) by Bruce Springsteen

...
I come (1)________ down in the valley
Where (2)____________ when you're young
They (3)__________ you up to do
Like your (4)__________ done
Me and (5)________ we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of this valley
Down to where the (6)____________ were green

We'd go down to the river
And (7)________ the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) (8)________ to the river we'd ride

Then I got Mary pregnant
And man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union card and a wedding coat

We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles
No (9)________ down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
We went down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) (10)________ to the river we'd ride

I got a job working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But lately (11)__________ ain't been no work
On (12)______________ of the economy

Now all them (13)____________ that seemed so important
Well mister (14)________ (15)________________ right into the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us (16)____________ in my brother's car
Her (17)________ tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At (18)__________ on them banks I'd lie awake
And (19)________ her (20)__________ just to feel each breath she'd take
Now the memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a (21)__________ a lie if it don't come true
Or is it (22)__________________ worse
That sends me down to the river
Though I know the river is dry
(Oh oh) down to the river tonight
...
Down to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) (23)________ to the river we ride
