Down by the Water
|
|
See this ancient riverbed
|
See where all my follys 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 lash flashing leda of pier 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
|
