Blood River Lyrics

i grew up by the river hudson

deep and dark as your feet can sink

stuck inside the project buildings

where the sun can never look at your face

you have had special something

you could hold the sky with your sound

well you had the clouds

and you wanted out

so you blew this town

chorus:

well i'll just stay right here

oh boy

well i'll just stay here

sing me a song

its been too long

just you stay right here

and when i hear that old train whistle sing

i don't bother to look out my window

i know there's no where to run for me

well our faces

they're all cruddy

from the dust you kicked up with your shoes

well you had your way

you just couldn't stay

you just couldn't stay

so don't you come round here

oh boy

don't you come round here

you left your own blood

alone in the mud

don't you come round here

dont you come round here

oh boy

don't you come round here

well you had your way

you just couldn't stay

dont you come round here
