Down by the river by the boats Where everybody goes to be alone Where you won't see any rising sun Down to the river we will run

When by the water we drinks to the dregs Look at the stones on the riverbed I can tell from your eyes You've never been by the riverside

Down by the water the riverbed Somebody calls you somebody says Swim with the current and float away Down by the river every day

Oh my god I see how everything is torn in the river deep And I don't know why I go the way Down by the riverside

When that old river runs past your eyes To wash off the dirt on the riverside Go to the water so every near The river will be your eyes and ears

I walk to the borders on my own Fall in the water just like a stone Chilled to the marrow in them bones Why do I go here alone

Oh my god I see how everything is torn in the river deep And I don't know why I go the way Down by the riverside

Oh my god I see how everything is torn in the river deep And I don't know why I go the way Down by the riverside

Oh oh Ah ah ah Oh oh Ah ah ah

Oh oh Ah ah ah

Down by the riverside

Down by the riverside
