(Neil Young)
Be on my side, I'll be on your side baby
There's no reason for you to hide
It's so hard for me standin' here all alone
When you could be takin' me for a ride
Ooh la la la
She could drag me over the rainbow
And take me away
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead
Take my hand, I'll take your hand baby
Together we might get away
This much madness is too much sorrow
It's impossible to make it today
Ooh la la la
She could drag me over the rainbow
And take me away
Down by the river
I shot my baby
Down by the river
Dead
Be on my side, I'll be on your side baby
There's no reason for you to hide
It's so hard for me standin' here all alone
When you could be takin' me for a ride
Ooh la la la
She could drag me over the rainbow
And take me away
Down by the river
I shot my baby
