It was a blinding light
A sheer tornado of pain
I had a whisky fury

Pounding like the devils rain

Down by the river

It's alright
I've been turning stones
Down by the river

It's alright
Someone's been catching a rabbit
About midnight


Up on a mountain side
I was touching heaven

I was a servant boy
But I was just a killer


Down by the river
I've been turning stones
Down by the river

It's alright
Someone's been catching a rabbit
About midnight


We don't take no prisoners here
Down by the river


Ain't no mystery here
Mystery in this world of mine

Hold on baby
Hold on to this night
