We went down by the river

[holty7]

Wonder if anyone can help. I've just heard a great song on the radio, and it didn't say who sang it. It's a country and western song, and in the chrous are the words 'we went down by the river'. It's not the one by Chris Knight where he shot his girlfriend, as I keep on getting when I search it. Hope someone can help. Thanks

Not Bruce Springsteen The River?

I think it is probably Jon Allen - Down by the river

zzxxee - "I left her by the river" is a line from Richard Marx's "Hazard"
