This town has been on the river going on 300 years Of livin' and dyin' and tryin' to get by, smiling through all of the tears They have some stories, yeah I'll tell 'ya, did you hear how the town hall burned Or the man who took too many liberties got his comeuppance but good Hallelujah, Hallelujah beneath the clear blue sky Hallelujah, glad I knew ya down by the riverside, by the riverside Down by the riverside When a baby comes they great her like she were a long lost friend When the troubles come and they hold her closer than you've ever been Yeah your mama, she was raised here and her mama she raised her right With these people, this earth, I hope you know what it's worth to live by the riverside Hallelujah, Hallelujah beneath the clear blue sky Hallelujah, glad I knew ya down by the riverside, by the riverside, oh Down by the riverside Oh well, the church bell still tolls the hour And the kid's they learn to love at the fair Still the late summer nights when the moon shines right On a girl with the long dark hair, long dark hair They've had their share of sorrows, when the Oeillet boy died They cried and they sobbed just tryin' to hold on to each other by his grave side Hallelujah, Hallelujah beneath the clear blue sky, oh Hallelujah, glad I knew ya down by the riverside, by the riverside, oh Down by the riverside
