Down By The River Lyrics:

 

Be on my side, I’ll be on your side, baby
There is no reason for you to hide
It’s so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride
She could drag me over the rainbow
Send me away

Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river

Dead, ooh, ooh
Shot her dead, ooh

You take my hand, I’ll take your hand
Together we may get away
This much madness is too much sorrow
It’s impossible to make it today
She could drag me over the rainbow
Send me away

Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river

Dead, dead, ooh, ooh
Shot her dead, shot her dead

Be on my side, I’ll be on your side
There is no reason for you to hide
It’s so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride
She could drag me over the rainbow
Send me away

Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river (x2)
