ACTIVITIES ABOUT THIS SONG Albert Hammond - Down by the river 1975 City life was getting us down So we spent a weekend out of town Pitched the tent on the patch of ground Down by the river Lit a fire and drank some wine You put your jeans on the top of mine Said, come in the water's fine Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river Said, come in the water's fine Down by the river Didn't feel too good all night So we took a walk in the morning light Came across the strangest sight Down by the river Silver fish lay on its side It was washed up by the early tide I wonder how it died Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river Silver fish lay on its side Down by the river The doctor put us both to bed He dosed us up and he shook his head Only foolish people go, he said Down by the river And why do willows weep, said he Because they're dying gradually From the waste, from the factories Down by the river Down by the river Down by the river
