[Neil Young - Down by the River Live at the Cellar Door 1970 lyrics]
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
She could drag me over the rainbow
And send me away
Down by the river I shot my baby
Down by the river dead, shot her dead
Shot her dead
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
And send me away
Down by the river I shot my baby
Down by the river dead, shot here dead
Shot her dead, ooh shot her dead
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
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
She could drag me over the rainbow
And send me away
Down by the river I shot my baby
Down by the river dead, shot her dead
Shot her dead
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
And send me away
Down by the river I shot my baby
Down by the river dead, shot here dead
Shot her dead, ooh shot her dead
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
