South of the River

I want to stay south of the river

With the chains and the gold

We can be out here together

But you hace places to go

Watching the sunshine blaze the gray

I don't know why you wouldn't stay

You should come south of the river

Where the loving is gold

You should come south of the river

This is where it all starts

I think that we could stay here forever

Lie on the roof till it's dark

And when the last bus pulls away

I swear that I almost heard you say

"I should move south of the river"

I want to get to know

I want to get to know, oh

I want to stay south of the river
