Albert Hammond Down by the River Letras:
City life was getting us down
So we spent a
weekend out of town
Pitched a tent on a
patch of ground
Down by the river
Lit a fire and drank some wine
You put your jeans
on top of mine
Said "Come in the water's fine"
Down by the river

(Chorus)
Down by the river
Down by the river
Said "Come in the water's fine"
Down by the river.

Didn't feel too good all night
So we took a walk in
the morning light
And came across the
strangest sight
Down by the river
Silver fish lay on its side
It was washed up by
the early tide
I wonder how it died?
Down by the river

(Chorus)

Silver fish...

The doctor put us both to bed
Dosed us up and he
shook his head
"Only foolish people go" he said
"down by the river.
And why do willows
weep?" said he
"Because they're
dying gradually.
From the waste from
the factory."
Down by the river

(Chorus)
...
...
And why do...
...

And in time the
riverbanks will die
The reeds will wilt and
the ducks won't fly
There'll be a tear in
the otter's eye
Down by the river
The banks will soon be
black and dead
And where the otter
raised his head
Will be a clean white
skull instead.
Down by the river

(Chorus)x 2
...
...
The banks will...
