The Clarks - The River слова песни
I come from down in the valleyWhere mister when you`re youngThey bring you up to do, Like your daddy doneMe and Mary we met in high school,She was just seventeenWe`d drive out of this valleyDown to where the fields were greenWe`d go down to the riverand into the river we`d diveOh down to the river we`d rideThen I got Mary Pregnant and man that was all she wroteAnd for my nineteen birthday I got a union card and a wedding coatWe went down to the courthouse and the judge put it all to restNo wedding day smiles no walk down the aisleNo flowers no wedding dressthat night we went down to the river and into the river we`d dive o down to the river and into the river we dived I got a job working construction for the Johnstown CompanyBut lately there ain`t been much work on account of the economyNow all those things that seemed so importantWell mister they vanished right in the airAnd I act like I don`t remember, Mary acts like she don`t carebut I remember us riding in my brother`s carHer body tan and wet down by the reservoirAt night on them banks I`d lie awakeAnd pull her close just to feel each breath she`d takenow Those memories come back to haunt me, well they haunt me like a curseIs a dream a lie if it don`t come trueOr is it something worse that sends meDown to the rive o i know the river is dry that sends me down the river tonight
