Down at the water, I held my Marie She said, "Now Johnny, your love means no more to me" Than rain in the river Than rain in the river
In bloody boots I stood on shadow ground Her long black hair beneath me, falling down Like rain in the river Like rain in the river
Last night, I put on my jacket and I went for a ride Smelled sweet mustard fields Had my Colt at my side Like rain in the river Rain in the river
The rain in the river The rain in the river Oh, rain in the river Rain in the river
Oh, rain in the river
Rain in the river (Hey!) Rain in the river Rain in the river (Hey!) Rain in the river (Hey!)

Près de l´eau, j´ai tenu ma Marie Elle a dit, "Maintenant Johnny, ton amour ne signifie plus rien pour moi" Que de la pluie dans la rivière Que de la pluie dans la rivière
