Текст песни: Down By The Riverside + перевод

I took my baby out and bought her a ring

Man, we planned a wedding come spring

Staring right into the eyes of my dreams

Hand in hand, down on one knee

Down by the Riverside

Down by the Riverside

Told me she would be my bride

Down by the Riverside

She said yes as I held her tight

We made love in the broad daylight

Now, I know why the old folks say

Get too close and you’ll be swept away

Down by the Riverside

Down by the Riverside

Don’t take much when the waters to high

Down by the Riverside

Spring came and turned by baby’s head around

Rains fell and now I feel like I might drown

Under the weight of this fools crown

--- Instrumental ---

There’s a tree down by the Riverside

Once it held its head up high

We carved our vows deep in its side

Now faithless love makes that willow cry

Down by the Riverside

Down by the Riverside

Love been bound to be denied

Down by the Riverside

Down by the Riverside

Her love turned out to be a lie

Down by the Riverside…
