Down By The River - Albert Hammond Jr[00:00:00]
City life was getting us down so we spent a weekend out of town[00:00:05]
Pitched our tent on a patch of ground down by the river[00:00:10]
Lit a fire and drank some wine you put your jeans on top of mine[00:00:15]
I said come in the water's fine down by the river[00:00:20]
Down by the river down by the river[00:00:26]
Said come in the water's fine down by the river[00:00:31]
Didn't feel too good all night so we took a walk in the morning light[00:00:39]
And came across the strangest sight down by the river[00:00:43]
Silver fish lay on it's side it was washed up by the early tide[00:00:48]
I wonder how it died down by the river[00:00:54]
Down by the river down by the river[00:00:58]
A silver fish lay on it's side down by the river[00:01:03]
The doctor put us both to bed he dosed us up[00:01:11]
And he shook his head[00:01:14]
Only foolish people go he said down by the river[00:01:16]
Why do willows weep said he because they're dying gradually[00:01:21]
From the waste from the factories down by the river[00:01:26]
Down by the river down by the river[00:01:31]
Why do willows weep said he down by the river[00:01:36]
In time the riverbanks will die the reeds will wilt[00:01:43]
And the ducks won't fly[00:01:47]
There will be a tear in the otter's eye down by the river[00:01:49]
The banks will soon be black and dead[00:01:53]
And where the otter raised his head[00:01:56]
Will be a clean white skull instead down by the river[00:01:58]
Down by the river down by the river[00:02:04]
The banks will soon be black and dead down by the river[00:02:08]
Down by the river down by the river[00:02:13]
The banks will soon be black and dead down by the river[00:02:18]
