Down By The River Lyrics
be on my side and I'll be on your side
there is no reason for you to hide
it's so hard for me to stay here all alone
when you could be taking me for a ride
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
she could drag me
over the rainbow
send me away
down by the river
I shot my baby
down by the river
dead
there is no reason for you to hide
it's so hard for me to stay here all alone
when you could be taking me for a ride
together we may get away
this much madness is too much sorrow
it's impossible to make it today
over the rainbow
send me away
I shot my baby
down by the river
dead

this is a Neil Young cover. Pretty clear it's about madness and a lover's murder
