I from down in the valley
Where you're young
They bring you up to do
Like daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of valley
Down to where the fields were green
We'd go to the river
And the river we'd dive
(Oh oh) down to the river we'd ride
Then I got Mary pregnant
And man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday
I got a union card and a wedding coat
We went to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding 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) down 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 them that so important
Well they 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 tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them I'd lie awake
And pull her to feel each she'd take
Now the memories come to me
They 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) to the river we ride
