The River - The Hit Co. (热歌公司)[00:00:00]

I come from down in the valley[00:00:18]

Where mister when you're young[00:00:23]

They bring you up to do like your daddy done[00:00:27]

Me and mary we met in high[00:00:35]

School when she was just seventeen[00:00:38]

Wed ride out of that valley[00:00:43]

Down to where the fields were green[00:00:47]

Wed go down to the river[00:00:53]

And into the river wed dive[00:00:58]

Oh down to the river wed ride[00:01:02]

Then I got mary pregnant and man that was all she wrote[00:01:10]

And for my nineteen birthday I[00:01:19]

Got a union card and a wedding coat[00:01:22]

We went down to the courthouse[00:01:27]

And the judge put it all to rest[00:01:31]

No wedding day smiles no walk down the aisle[00:01:35]

No flowers no wedding dress[00:01:39]

That night we went down to the river[00:01:43]

And into the river wed dive[00:01:48]

On down to the river we did ride[00:01:51]

I got a job working construction[00:02:36]

For the johnstown company[00:02:40]

But lately there ain't been much[00:02:44]

Work on account of the economy[00:02:47]

Now all them things that seemed so important[00:02:53]

Well mister they vanished right into the air[00:02:56]

Now I just act like I don't remember,[00:03:01]

Mary acts like she don't care[00:03:05]

But I remember us riding in my brothers car[00:03:09]

Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir[00:03:13]

At night on them banks I'd lie awake[00:03:18]

And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take[00:03:21]

Now those memories come back to haunt me,[00:03:26]

They haunt me like a curse[00:03:30]

Is a dream a lie if it don't come true[00:03:34]

Or is it something worse that sends me[00:03:38]

Down to the river though I know the river is dry[00:03:44]

To send me[00:03:50]

Down to the river and I[00:03:51]

Down to the river, my baby and i[00:04:00]

Oh down to the river we ride[00:04:07]

Oh[00:04:14]
