It was a blinding light A sheer tornado of pain I had a whisky fury Pounding like the devils rain Down by the river It's alright I've been turning stones Down by the river It's alright Someone's been catching a rabbit About midnight Up on a mountain side I was touching heaven I was a servant boy But I was just a killer Down by the river I've been turning stones Down by the river It's alright Someone's been catching a rabbit About midnight We don't take no prisoners here Down by the river Ain't no mystery here Mystery in this world of mine Hold on baby Hold on to this night
