The River (Live) by Bruce Springsteen

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

We'd go (6)________ 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 (7)________ was all she wrote
And for my (8)____________________ birthday
I got a union card and a wedding coat

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

I got a job working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But (14)____________ (15)__________ ain't (16)________ no work
On account of the economy

Now all (17)________ things (18)________ seemed so important
Well mister they (19)________________ right into the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I (20)________________ us (21)____________ in my brother's car
Her body tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And (22)________ her close just to feel (23)________ breath she'd take
Now the memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me (24)________ a curse
Is a (25)__________ a lie if it don't (26)________ 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 baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the river we ride
