Down river from my memories, of all those summer years,

You come riding by on horseback crowned with tears,

I've watched you from the shadows, behind this wall of trees,

I would comfort you if I knew the words to speak;

CHORUS:

Hey! throw me down a line,

You can't make it alone it's a long hard climb,

Hey! throw me down a line,

I'll keep you company if you don't mind,

Throw me down a line.

Your friends have gone a little crazy, from all that summer heat,

And you sit down here crying in defeat,

You are so confused and tired, but I know you've done your best,

Now you're looking like a kid in your mother's dress;

Hey! throw me down a line,

You can't make it alone it's a long hard climb,

Hey! throw me down a line,

I'll keep you company if you don't mind,

Throw me down a line.

Please let me ride with you cross this mountain,

I too have no-one to be sharing my lifetime with,

'Cause I'm lost like you - not alone we are two -

Confused pilgrims.

Hey! throw me down a line,

You can't make it alone it's a long hard climb,

Hey! throw me down a line,

I'll keep you company if you don't mind,

Throw me down a line.
