Girls are walking with their mothers, shopping for clothes   Sons are sitting with their fathers, fishing for ideas in their souls      Down by the river, it's getting cold   Down by the river, it's getting cold   It's getting cold      The roads are stained, it seems impossible, impossible to clean   The oil and the salt mix to a shiny, shiny gleam      Down by the river, it's getting cold   Down by the river, it's getting cold      But it won't stop the bastards trying   And it won't stop the people from dying   But it won't stop the bastards trying   And it's all because of you   All because of you   Because of you      Girls are walking with their mothers, shopping for clothes   Sons are sitting with their fathers, fishing for ideas in their souls      Down by the river, it's getting cold   Down by the river, it's getting cold      But it won't stop the bastards trying   And it won't stop the people from dying   But it won't stop the bastards trying   And it's all because of you   All because of you      Down by the river it's getting cold   Down by the river it's getting cold   Because of you   Down by the river it's getting cold   Down by the river it's getting cold
