I from down in the valley
Where mister you're young
bring you up to do
your daddy done
Me and we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of valley
Down to where 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
I got Mary pregnant
And man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union and a wedding coat
We went to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No day smiles
No walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding 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 working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But there ain't been no work
On account of the economy
Now all them things that seemed so important
Well mister vanished right into the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car
Her body tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close to feel each breath she'd take
Now the memories come to haunt me
They me a curse
Is a 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 tonight
...
Down to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the we ride
