[Lyric] Down by the River Live Carnegie Hall 1970 (Neil Young)

[Intro]
This is Friday night, December the Fourth, New York City, part one of the evening concert

[Verse 1]
Be on my side, I'll be on your side
There is no reason for you to hide
It's so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride

[Pre-Chorus]
She could drag me over the rainbow
And send me away

[Chorus]
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead

[Verse 2]
You take my hand, I'll take your hand
Together we may gеt away
This much madness is too much sorrow
It's impossible to make it today
[Pre-Chorus]
Shе could drag me over the rainbow
And send me away

[Chorus]
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead
Ooh

[Outro]
Be on my side, I'll be on your side
There is no reason for you to hide
It's so hard for me staying here all alone
When you could be taking me for a ride

[Segue]
Thank you
