متن موزیک

How you doin' out there tonight?

That's good, that's good

This is ah, when I was growin' up, me and my Dad used to go at it all the time, over almost anything

But I, I use to have really long hair, way down past my shoulders

And I was 17 or 18, oh man, he used to hate it

And we got to where we'd fight so much, that I'd, that I'd spend a lot of time out of the house

And in the summertime it wasn't so bad, 'cause it was warm and your friends were out

But in the winter, I remember standin' downtown and it would get so cold

And, when the wind would blow, I had this phone booth that I used to stand in

And I used to call my girl, like for hours at a time, just talking to her all night long

And finally I'd get my nerve up to go home, and I'd stand there in the driveway

And he'd be waiting for me in the kitchen

And I'd tuck my hair down in my collar, and I'd walk in

And he'd call me back to sit down with him

And the first thing he'd always ask me was "What did I think I was doin' with myself?"

And the worst part about it was, I could never explain it to him

I remember I got in a motorcycle accident once

And I was laid up in bed, and he had a barber come in and, and cut my hair

And man, I could remember telling him that I hated him, and that I would never, ever forget it

And he used to tell me "Man, I can't wait 'til the army gets you

When the army gets you they're gonna make a man out of you

They're gonna cut all that hair off, and they'll make a man out of you"

And this was in, I guess '68, and there was a lot of guys, from the neighborhood going to Vietnam

I remember the drummer in my first band, comin' over my house with his Marine uniform on

Saying that he was goin', and that he didn't know where it was

And a lot of guys went, and a lot of guys didn't come back

And a lot that came back, weren't the same anymore

And I remember the day I got my draft notice, I hid it from my folks

And three days before my physical, me and my friends went out and we stayed up all night

And we got on the bus to go that morning, man, and we were all so scared

And I went, and I failed. I came home - it's nothin' to applaud about

But I remember comin' home after I'd been gone for three days

And walkin' in the kitchen, and my mother and father were sittin' there

And my Dad said "Where you been?"

And I said "Ah, I went to take my physical"

He said "What happened?"

I said "They didn't take me"

And he said "That's good"

I come from down in the valley

Where mister when you're young

They bring you up to do

Just like your daddy done

Me and Mary we met in high school

When she was just 17

We'd ride out of that valley

Down to where the fields were green

We'd go down to the river

And into the river we'd dive

Oh oh, down to the river, we'd ride

Then I got Mary pregnant

And man, that was all she wrote

And for my 19th birthday

I got a union card and a wedding coat

We went down to the courthouse

And the judge put it all to rest

No wedding day smiles

No walk down the aisle

No flowers, no wedding dress

That night we went down to the river

And into the river we'd dive

Oh oh, down to the river

We'd ride

And I got a job working construction

For the Johnstown Company

But lately there ain't been much work

On account of the economy

Now all them things that seemed so important

Well mister, they just vanish right into the air

I just act like I don't remember

And Mary acts like she don't care

But I remember us riding in my brother's car

Her body tan and wet, down at the reservoir

At night, on those banks I'd lie awake

And pull her close just to feel every breath she'd take

Now, those memories come back to haunt me

They haunt me like a curse

Is a dream a lie if it don't come true

Or is it something worse?

That sends me down to river

Oh, I know the river is dry

That sends me down to river, tonight

Down to river, my baby and I

Oh-oh, down to river we ride
