Be on my side I’ll be on your side, baby
There is no reason for you to hide,
This much madness is too much sorrow,
It’s impossible to make it today,
Hey, hey, ooh-ooh
She could drag me over the rainbow,
Send me away.
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river,
Dead, shot her dead.
You take my hand, I’ll take your hand,
Together we may get away.
Prevod pesme
Dole kraj reke
Budi na mojoj strani, ja biću na tvojoj, dušo
Nema razloga da se skrivaš,
Ovoliko ludila donosi previše tuge,
Danas je nemoguće preživeti,
Hej, hej, ooh-ooh
Mogla bi me odvući s one strane duge.
U ludnicu me strpati.
Dole kraj reke
Pucao sam u moju dragu
Dole kraj reke,
Ubio, ubio sam je.
Ti uzmi me za ruku, ja uzeću te za ruku,
Zajedno možda pobegnemo.
