I come from in the valley
when you're young
They bring you up to do
Like your daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of this valley
Down to where the fields were green
We'd go to the river
And into the 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 union and a coat
We down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No day smiles
No walk the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
We went down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) to the river we'd ride
I got a job working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But lately there ain't been no work
On account of the economy
Now all things seemed so important
Well mister they vanished right into the air
I just act like I don't remember
acts like she don't care
But I remember us riding 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 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
...
Down to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the we ride
