Down By the River

[Verse 1]

Be on my side, I'll be on your side

There is no reason for you to hide

It's so hard staying here all alone

You could be taking me for a ride

[Pre-Chorus]

(Ooh la la la, ooh la la la la)

She could drag me over the rainbow

And send me away

[Chorus]

Down by the river

I shot my baby

Down by the river

Dead

[Guitar and Violin Solos]

[Verse 2]

Take my hand, I'll take your hand, baby

Together we may get away

This much madness is too much sorrow

It's impossible to make it today

[Pre-Chorus]

(Ooh la la la, ooh la la la la)

Oh baby

She could drag me over the rainbow

And send me away, yeah

[Chorus]

Down by the river

I shot my baby

Down by the river

Dead

[Cello Solo]

[Verse 1]

Be on my side, I'll be on your side, baby

There ain't no reason for us to hide

It's so hard staying here all alone

You should be taking me for a ride

[Pre-Chorus]

(Ooh la la la, ooh la la la la)

Oh baby

She could drag me over the rainbow

And send me away

[Chorus]

Down by the river

I shot my baby

Down by the river

I shot my baby

Down by the river

(You take my hand and I'll take your hand, baby)

I shot my baby

(Together we can make a getaway)

Down by the river

(This much madness, there's too much sorrow)

I shot my baby

(It's impossible to make it today)

Down by the river

(This much madness, there's too much sorrow)

I shot my baby

(It's impossible to make it today)

Down by the river

[Outro]

Thanks y'all. Thanks y'all.
