Malcolm Holcombe - Down The River lyrics

They make the laws To suit themselves The ones that buy and sell the rest Of us down the river The rest of us Dont need the touch Of takin' more than just enough to get By down the river Chorus Down the river We pray for one another Down the river We hold on to our dreams Down the river The hard times makes us stronger to get by And leave this world behind Down the river A bed to lay Me down at night And for workin' hands to hold you tight My darlin' and me down the river Now far away The mem'ries of Simple days remainin' in Our broken hearts down the river Chorus The gifts of little ones we love Our faith in blood and God above They will last forever Down the river Chorus Chorus
