South Of The Border

I know a freaky young lady

Name of Cocaine Katie

She makes my temperature freeze

She's got a blood red powder

When she gives a shout

She'll bring you to your knees

Well we were being clever playing God games forever

She said she only meant to please

But I'm someone's brother, got a father and a mother

You know I'm going to have to leave

South of the border

I think you oughta

South of the border

I think you oughta

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave

To a place where you can breathe

And you know there's no reprieve

There'll be tears on leaving

But there won't be no grieving

'Cos a city soon forgets

To me it's magic

To the landlord it's tragic

He's got another room to let

There'll be the same old faces in the same old places

Where my youth was well misspent

But I tow the line and move the time

To a town called "No Regrets"

South of the border

I think you oughta

South of the border

I think you oughta

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave

To a place where you can breathe

And you know there's no reprieve

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave

To a place where you can breathe

And you know there's no reprieve
