Down by the River (Live at the Cellar Door 1970)

[Verse 1]
Be on my side. I'll be on your side
There is no reason for you to hide
It's so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride

[Pre-Chorus]
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, shot her dead
Shot her dead

[Verse 2]
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]
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, shot here dead
Shot her dead, ooh
Shot her dead

[Verse 1]
Be on my side, I'll be on your side
There is no reason for you to hide
It's so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride
