THE DECEMBERISTS feat GILLIAN WELCH: DOWN BY THE WATER.

"The King is dead" by THE DECEMBERISTS is one of my favourites albums of the year. They remember me the bests albums of R.E.M. and this song DOWN BY THE WATER specially. Don't you think they are gonna pronunce the verse: "This one goes are to the one I love" in any moment? The voice of GILLIAN WELCH at the chorus made this song better -and any other songs- Hope you like.

LYRICS

See this ancient riverbed

See where all the follies led

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag

I was just some towhead teen

Feeling round for fingers to get in between

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag

The season rubs me wrong

The summer swells anon

So knock me down, tear me up,

But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag

Sweet descend this rabble round

The pretty little patter of a seaboard town

Rolling in the water and

Rolling down the old main drag

All dolled up in gabardine

The last flashing lee to appear nineteen

Queen of the water and

Queen of the old main drag

The season rubs me wrong

The summer swells anon

So knock me down, tear me up,

But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag

The season rubs me wrong

The summer swells anon

So knock me down, tear me up,

But I would bear it all broken just to fill my cup

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag

Down by the water and

Down by the old main drag
