| 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 |
| When she was just seventeen |
| We'd ride 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 |
| Ohhh 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 |
| That night we went down to the river |
| And into the river we'd dive |
| Ohhh down to the river |
| We'd ride yeah yeah |
| Brdige: |
| 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 them things that seemed so important |
| Well mister they vanished right into the air |
| Now 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 body tan and wet down at the reservoir |
| At night on them banks I'd lie awake |
| And pull her close just to feel |
| Each breath she'd take |
| Now those memories come back to haunt me |
| They haunt 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 river is dry |
| That sends me down to the river |
| Tonight ahhh yeah yeah |
| Down to the river my baby and I |
| Oh down to the river we ride |
| Ahhh yeah yeah |
