I cAmome from down in the vCalley, where mGister when you're yFoung
They bAmring you up to Cdo lFike your daddy doCne
Me and MFary we met in high school, when Cshe was just GseventAmeen
We'd Dmride out of that valley down to wChere the fields were gFreen
We'd go Amdown to the Friver, And Ginto the river we'd Cdive
Oh Amdown to the Friver we'd rGide F
I gotAm Mary pregCnant, And man tGhat was all she wroteF

ACnd for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
We weFnt down to the courthouse, And the jCudge put it Gall to Amrest
Dm C
FNo wedding day smiles no walk down in the aisle, No flowers no wedding dress
That night we went Amdown to the rFiver, And Ginto the river we'd Cdive
Oh dAmown to the rFiver we did Gride F

AmI got a job working constrCuction for the JGohnstown FCompany
But laAmtely there ain't been Cmuch work on Faccount of the econoCmy
Now aFll them things that seemed so important
Well mister they vCanished right Ginto the Amair
NowDm I just act like I don't remember, Mary aCcts like she don't Fcare
But I reAmmember us riding in my brCother's car
Her body Gtan and wet down at the rFeservoir
At nAmight on them banks I'd lCie awake
And pull her Fclose just to feel each bCreath she'd take

NAmow those memories come back to haunt me, They haunt me like a curse
Is a drDmeam a lie if it don't come true, Or iCs it something wForse that sends me
AmDown to the rFiver though I kGnow the river is Cdry,
That sends me Amdown to the rFiver tonGight
