I come in the valley
mister when you're young
They bring you up to do
your daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd out of valley
Down to where the fields were green
We'd go down to the river
And the we'd dive
(Oh oh) down to the river we'd ride
Then I got pregnant
And man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union card and a wedding 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 dress
We went down to the river
And 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 of the economy
Now all them 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 us riding in my brother's car
Her body tanned and wet at the reservoir
At night on banks I'd lie awake
And her just to feel each breath she'd take
Now the memories come back to haunt me
haunt me like 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
Though I know the is dry
(Oh oh) down to the tonight
...
Down to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the river we ride
