I come from in the valley
Where mister you're young
They bring you up to do
your daddy done
Me and we met in school
When she was seventeen
We'd drive out of this valley
Down to where the were 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 card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse
And the put it all to rest
No day smiles
No walk down the aisle
No flowers, no dress
We went to the river
And into the we'd dive
(Oh oh) to the 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 that seemed so important
Well mister they vanished right into the air
I act like I don't remember
like she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car
Her body and wet down at the reservoir
At night on banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each she'd take
Now the memories come to haunt me
haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it worse
That me down to the river
Though 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 river we ride
