I come from down in the valley
Where when you're young
They bring you up to do
done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was seventeen
We'd drive out of valley
to where the green
We'd go to the river
And into the we'd dive
(Oh oh) 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 down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles
No walk down 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 we'd ride
I got a job working construction
For the Johnstown Company
But lately there ain't no work
On account of the economy
Now all them things that seemed so important
Well mister they vanished the air
I just act like I don't remember
Mary 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 on banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now the memories back to haunt me
haunt me a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it worse
sends me down to the river
I know the river is dry
(Oh oh) to the river tonight
...
Down to the river
My baby and I
(Oh oh) down to the river we ride
