Down by the River

It was a blinding light

A sheer tornado of pain

I had a whisky fury

Pounding like the devils rain

Down by the river

It's alright

I've been turning stones

Down by the river

It's alright

Someone's been catching a rabbit

About midnight

Up on a mountain side

I was touching heaven

I was a servant boy

But I was just a killer

Down by the river

I've been turning stones

Down by the river

It's alright

Someone's been catching a rabbit

About midnight

We don't take no prisoners here

Down by the river

Ain't no mystery here

Mystery in this world of mine

Hold on baby

Hold on to this night
