Les paroles de la chanson
« River »
Bruce Springsteen

I come from down in the valley
Where, Mister, when you are young
They bring you up to do
Just like your daddy done.
Me and Mary we are metting in highscool
When she was just seventeen
We’d drive out of this valey
Down to where the fiel were green

We’d go down to the river
And into the river we’d dive
Down to the river we’d dive

Then I got Mary pregnant
And Man that all she wrote
And for my nighteen birthday
I got a union card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse
And the judge put it all to rest
No wedding-day smiles
No walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress

That night we went to the river
And into the river we dived
oh, down to the river we did ride

I got a job working construction
For the jonhson compagnie
But lately there ain’t been much work
On account of the économy
Now all then things that seemed so important
When, Mister, they just vanished right into air
Now I just act like I don’t remember
Mary acts like she don’t care
But I remember us riding in my brother’s car
Her body tanned and wept down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I’d lie away
And pull her close just to feel eache breath
Now those memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if he don’t come true
Or it is somthing worst
That sends me down to the river
Also I now the river is dry
Sends me down to the river tonight
Down to the river my baby and I
Oh down to the river we’d ride
