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