He Fades Away/ The River
There's a man in my bed, I used to love him
His kisses used to take my breath away
There's a man in my bed, I hardly know him
I wipe his face and hold his hand and watch him
As he slowly fades away
And he fades away
Not like leaves that fall in Autumn
Turning gold against the grey
He fades away
Like the bloodstains on the pillowcase I wash every day
He fades away
And he's not the only one who made the trip so many years ago
To work the Wittenoom mine
So many young men old before their time and dying slow
They fade away
Wheezing bags of bones with lungs half clogged and filled with clay
They fade away
There's a man in my bed, they never told him
The cost of bringing home his weekly pay
And when the courts decide how much they owe him
How will he spend his money when he lies in bed
And coughs his life away
And he fades away
Not like leaves that fall in Autumn
Turning gold against the grey
He fades away
Like the bloodstains on the pillowcase that I wash every day
He fades away
He fades away
I come from down in the valley
Where mister when you're young
They bring you up to do like your daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
She was just seventeen
We'd ride out of this valley down to where the fields were green
We'd go down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh, down to the river we did ride
Then I got Mary pregnant
And man that was all she wrote
And for my nineteenth birthday I got a union card and a wedding coat
We went down to the courthouse and the judge put it all to rest
No wedding day smiles, no walk down the aisle
No flowers, no wedding dress
That night we went down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh, down to the river we did ride (down to the river)
Down to the river
And into the river we'd dive (the river)
Oh, down to the river we did ride
I got a job working construction for the Johnstown Company
But lately there ain't been much work on account of the economy
Now all them things that seemed so important
Well mister they vanished right into the air
Now I act like I don't remember
Mary acts like she don't care
But I remember us riding in my brother's car
Her body tan and wet down at the reservoir
At night on them banks I'd lie awake
And pull her close just to feel each breath she'd take
Now those memories come back to haunt me
They haunt me like a curse
Is a dream a lie if it don't come true
Or is it something worse
That sends me down to the river
Though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight (down to the river)
Down to the river, my baby and I (the river)
Oh, down to the river tonight
Down to the river
Though I know the river is dry
That sends me down to the river tonight
Down to the river, my baby and I
Sends me down to the river at night ...
