Current song lyrics
come from down in the valley<br />where mister when you're young<br />They bring you up to do<br />like your daddy done<br />Me and mary we met in high school<br />when she was just seventeen<br />Wed ride out of that valley<br />down to where the fields were green<br /><br />We'd go down to the river<br />And into the river we'd dive<br />Oh down to the river we'd ride<br /><br />Then I got mary pregnant<br />and man that was all she wrote<br />And for my nineteen birthday<br />I got a union card and a wedding coat<br />We went down to the courthouse<br />and the judge put it all to rest<br />No wedding day smiles<br />no walk down the aisle<br />No flowers no wedding dress<br />That night we went down to the river<br />And into the river we'd dive<br />On down to the river we did ride<br /><br />I got a job working construction<br />for the johnstown company<br />But lately there ain't been much work<br />on account of the economy<br />Now all them things that seemed so important<br />Well mister they vanished right into the air<br />Now I just act like I don't remember<br />mary acts like she don't care<br />But I remember us riding in my brothers car<br />Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir<br />At night on them banks I'd lie awake<br />And pull her close just to feel each breath shed take<br />Now those memories come back to haunt me<br />they haunt me like a curse<br />Is a dream a lie if it don't come true<br />Or is it something worse that sends me<br />Down to the river though I know the river is dry<br />Down to the river, my baby and I<br />Oh down to the river we ride
