The River (Live) by Bruce Springsteen

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

We'd go down to the river
And into the (6)__________ we'd dive
(Oh oh) down to the (7)__________ we'd ride

Then I got Mary pregnant
And man (8)________ was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union card and a wedding coat

We (9)________ (10)________ to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No (11)______________ day smiles
No walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
We went down to the river
And (12)________ the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) (13)________ to the river we'd ride

I got a job working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But lately (14)__________ ain't been no work
On account of the economy

Now all them things that seemed so important
Well mister they vanished right into the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us (15)____________ in my brother's car
Her (16)________ tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At night on (17)________ banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to (18)________ each breath she'd take
Now the (19)________________ (20)________ back to haunt me
They (21)__________ me (22)________ a curse
Is a (23)__________ a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something 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 (24)________ and I
(Oh oh) down to the river we ride
