I come from down in the valley Where mister when you're young They bring you up to do, Like your daddy done Me and Mary we met in high school, 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 into the river we'd dive 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 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'd go down to the river and into the river we'd dive Oh down to the river we'd ride I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy Now all those things that seemed so important Well they just vanished in the air And I act like I don't remember, Mary acts like she don't care And I remember us riding in my brother's car Her body tan and wet down by the reservoir At night on them banks I'd lie awake And pull her close to feel each breath she'd take Those memories come back to haunt me, well they haunt me like a curse Is a dream a lie if it don't come true Or is it something worse And We'd go down to the river and into the river we'd dive Oh down to the river we'd ride Down to the river my baby and I Oh down to the river we'd ride Yeah Yeah Yeah the river we'd ride Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
