Down By The River
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, here we go
I’m down with the music so let’s start the show
I pick up my baby then we hit the road
Down by the water, all my friends in tow
Oh, oh, up we go
I’m feeling the rhythm running through my bones
I take her by the arms and swing her to and fro
Down by the river with the joints in stow
[Verse 1]
Wake up groggy, can’t eat breakfast ‘cause my stomach hurts
I can’t tell if it’s from last night or my plunging nerves
But I still get up, go to class, my roommate still looks high
Then I found out he took a hit at a quarter to 9
Then we’d grab lunch right after sleeping through our lectures
And if a pretty girl walked by, we’d givе our clueless gesturеs
And after buy some nicotine right down the street at Hidden Treasures
We’d try to make ourselves look older, take that extra measure
And after dinner, we’d meet up with our friends
Write a catchy ass hook for a song with no end
But we’d make it fucking memorable ‘cause we were damn inseparable
And walking to the doc, we’d stop along the way to set the bar
[Pre-Chorus]
Through the night lasts until no end
Steal some shit and think we’d wind up dead
Then we realized it was all in our head
And we wouldn't stop chasing until the leader said
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, here we go
I’m down with the music so let’s start the show
I pick up my baby then we hit the road
Down by the water, all my friends in tow
Oh, oh, up we go
I’m feeling the rhythm running through my bones
I take her by the arms and swing her to and fro
Down by the river with the joints in stow
[Verse 2]
Then the next day, we’d just do it all again
Even though my buddy’s girl threw up, she’s choking on the mend
Damn, weed solved everything, and we’d trip off our asses
I’m still convinced that it’s the reason why I’d pass my classes
It made me better at guitar, it made me break my favorite shelf
It made me puke but also learn about myself
Our minds were opened up to endless possibilities
We’d worry about lyrics more than real responsibilities
But you should realize at the end of the day
We showed up and do our work but in our own and special way
We made it through whatever with a penguin and guitar
We came up with this song and goddamn this shit goes fucking hard (fucking hard)
[Pre-Chorus]
Through the night lasts until no end
Steal some shit and think we’d wind up dead
Then we realized it was all in our head
And we wouldn't stop chasing until the leader said
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, here we go
I’m down with the music so let’s start the show
I pick up my baby then we hit the road
Down by the water, all my friends in tow
Oh, oh, up we go
I’m feeling the rhythm running through my bones
I take her by the arms and swing her to and fro
Down by the river with the joints in stow
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, here we go
Go, go, go, start the show
'till the leader said, oh, oh, oh
Woah, oh, oh, oh
‘till the end
Down by the river with the joints in stow
Oh, oh, here we go
I’m down with the music so let’s start the show
I pick up my baby then we hit the road
Down by the water, all my friends in tow
[Outro]
Oh, oh, up we go
I’m feeling the rhythm running through my bones
I take her by the arms and swing her to and fro
Down by the river with the joints in stow
(down by the river with the joints in stow)
(down by the river with the joints in stow)
