Lyrics
BORDERTOWN
I?m sitting here looking at a fool, in the mirror behind the bar
It?s another Saturday night and the moon?s shinning bright
and I?m wondering where you are
Me and Jose Quevero, you know we make quite a pair
They say if you drink enough you won?t care
and I think I?m just about there.
I walked up to sweet Violet and said ?Where?d you get
those long pretty legs?
She laughed and said ?They?re for dancing and I never
have to beg?
There?s been a lot of water under our bridge
but it flowed down different streams.
I never had the pleasure of drinking in her water
But it ain?t no sin to dream.
CHORUS
In BorderTown, nothing ever changes
I was gonna leave some sunny day
But it was always raining
I?m still here, I can still be found
When the moon?s shinning bright
on a Saturday night
Down in BorderTown
Lead R. C.
The Preacher gets up his sermon
While he plays on the internet
And he hopes he don?t get caught
For what ain?t been found out yet
There?s a kid selling crack
in an old shack, down by the K.P. Hall
and the devil sits around shaking his head
trying to make sense of it all
CHORUS
