I come down in the valley
Where when you're young
They bring you up to do
Like your done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd out of this valley
to where 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 pregnant
And man was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union card and a coat
We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles
No walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
We down to the river
And 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 them things that seemed so important
Well mister vanished right into the air
I act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I us in my brother's car
Her body and wet at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel breath she'd take
Now the memories back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something worse
That sends me 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 we ride
