Meet me by the river when the sun's going down
Make a little fire pass a bottle 'round
Ain't no path, so follow all the sounds
Oh I'll see you down there
You could tell two friends and they could five
We'll all be here when Jack and Jim arrive
It'll be just us and the trees, and a little fresh air
And when the whiskey's all gone and the night grows old
There's no more sense in the stories told
We can laugh down the path with smoke in our clothes

And find a little peace down there
So maybe I'll see you down there
We'll all get together for a while
So maybe I'll see you down there
Everyone together for a while
Oh, I'll see you there
Oh, I'll see you there

Meet me in the city where the street's run down
Gather up a crowd in an empty town
It's where the people speed up and the time slows down
Oh, I'll see you down there
Sally pours a drink and the glasses raise high
We wrote on the wall in a crooked line
The same song plays that we heard so many times

And now we'll hear it down there
So maybe I'll see you down there
We'll all get together for a while
So maybe I'll see you down there
Everyone together for a while
Oh, I'll see you there
Oh, I'll see you there
