Riverside

recording of 1995

Seen her get up, seen her go down,
down to the riverside
Seen her jump into the river and drown,
down to the riverside
People do just what they will,
don't matter to the river, it's running still

Sun come up, sun go down,
down to the riverside
Sun jump into the river and drown,
down to the riverside

Every day just like the last,
we sit and watch the water pass

Came a day the built a bridge,
down to the riverside
Over the way, on top of the ridge,
down to the riverside
Built a bridge for people to cross,
but every other day, someone jumping off

You might think some boys they got it made,
down to the riverside
They got the money and the women and a place in the shade,
down to the riverside
That ain't no way to ease the pain,
can't listen to the river when it calls your name
