I was born by the river
In a little tent.
And just like the river,
I've been running ever since.

Then I got Mary pregnant and man that was all she wrote.
And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat.

That night we went down to the river and into the river we'd dive,
Oh down to the river we did ride.
