The River (Live) by Bruce Springsteen
...
I come (1)________ down in the valley
Where mister when you're young
They bring you up to do
Like your daddy done
Me and (2)________ we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd drive out of this valley
Down to where the fields were green
We'd go down to the river
And (3)________ the (4)__________ we'd dive
(Oh oh) (5)________ 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 (6)________ and a wedding coat
We went (7)________ to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles
No walk (8)________ the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
We went down to the river
And into the (9)__________ we'd dive
(Oh oh) down to the river we'd ride
I got a job (10)______________ construction
For the Johnstown Company
But (11)____________ there ain't (12)________ no work
On (13)______________ of the economy
Now all them things that seemed so important
Well (14)____________ they (15)________________ right (16)________ the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary acts (17)________ she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car
Her body tanned and wet down at the reservoir
At (18)__________ on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now the memories come back to haunt me
They (19)__________ me like a curse
Is a (20)__________ a lie if it don't (21)________ true
Or is it something worse
That (22)__________ me down to the river
Though I know the (23)__________ is dry
(Oh oh) down to the river tonight
...
Down to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the (24)__________ we ride
