[Intro]

 

 

 

[Verse]

 

Be on my side, I'll be on your side, baby,

there is no reason for you to hide.

It's so hard for me stayin' here all alone

when you could be takin' me for a ride,

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

Yeah, yeah.

She could drag me over the rainbow

and send me away.

 

 

[Chorus]

 

Down by the river,

I shot my baby.

Down by the river,

 

dead, ooh, shot her dead.

 

 

 

[Verse]

 

You take my hand, I'll take your hand,

together we may get away.

This much madness is too much sorrow,

it's impossible to make it today.

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

Yeah, ooh, ooh, yeah.

She could drag me over the rainbow

and send me away.

 

 

[Chorus]

 

Down by the river,

I shot my baby.

Down by the river,

 

dead, dead, woh, woh, shot her dead,

shot her dead.

 

 

[Verse]

 

Be on my side, I'll be on your side, baby,

there is no reason for you to hide.

It's so hard for me stayin' here all alone

when you could be takin' me for a ride,

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

Yeah, yeah.

She could drag me over the rainbow

and send me away.

 

 

[Chorus]

 

Down by the river,

I shot my baby.

Down by the river,
