Living in the city can be so rough
Even if you live in style
Everybody needs a little breakaway
From the hustling for a while
So let's go
Down the river
Four in the morning, the boat comes up
Give it everything you've got
To get up, get out, come down to the river
Where your troubles are soon forgot
Let's go
Down the river
Let's go
Down the river
Party on the river at twelve o'clock
You got friends, bring 'em all
Your mama and your daddy and your grandma too
We're gonna have ourselves a ball
So let's go
Down the river
Let's go
Down the river
Riding down the river will make you high
See all the natural things
Once you take a ride on a riverboat
Then it's gonna make you wanna sing
Let's go
Down the river
Let's go
Down the river
