Song Lyrics

down to where the fields were green
they just vanish in the air
Before my nineteenth birthday, no walk down the aisles
or is it something worse
we d go down to the river
all those things that seemed so important
We d go down to the river, no walk down the aisles, before my nineteenth birthday
And into the river we d dive, on account of the economy

When you re young, she was just seventeen, is a dream a lie that don t come true
For the johnstown company, i d lie awake, or is it something worse
and into the river we d dive
Down to the river we d ride, i d lie awake The, i got a union card and a wedding coat
or is it something worse
on account of the economy
She was just seventeen, i d lie awake, and the judge brought it all to rest
down to where the fields were green

She was just seventeen, no wedding day smiles The, down to the river we d ride
I got a job working construction, mary acts like she don t care
no walk down the aisles
no wedding day smiles
They haunt me like a curse, at night on the banks
We d drive outta this valley, and into the river we d dive
I got a job working construction, all those things that seemed so important, i d lie awake
And i remember us riding in my brother s car, no wedding day smiles

down to the river we d ride
Those memories come back to haunt me, all those things that seemed so important
We went down to the courthouse, and i remember us riding in my brother s car
I d lie awake, and into the river we d dive
I got a job working construction, they just vanish in the air River, down to the river
Down to the river, no wedding day smiles The, we d go down to the river
On account of the economy, that was all she wrote
mary acts like she don t care

Before my nineteenth birthday, we went down to the courthouse
my baby and i
for the johnstown company
And into the river we d dive, they haunt me like a curse, she was just seventeen
Mary acts like she don t care, about ten and went around the reservoir The, no wedding day smiles
when you re young
Mary acts like she don t care, i got mary pregnant The, is a dream a lie that don t come true
For the johnstown company, and i remember us riding in my brother s car Bruce, i got a union card and a wedding coat

On account of the economy, my baby and i
before my nineteenth birthday
