I come from down in the valley
mister when you're young
bring you up to do
Like daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of this valley
Down to the fields were green
We'd go down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) down to the river we'd ride
Then I got Mary pregnant
And man was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles
No down the aisle
No flowers, no dress
We went down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) to the we'd ride
I got a job working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But lately there ain't no work
On account of the economy
Now all that seemed so important
Well mister they vanished right the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I us riding in my brother's car
Her body tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel she'd take
Now the memories come back to me
They me a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something worse
That sends me down to the river
I know the river is dry
(Oh oh) down to the river tonight
...
to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the river we ride
