Blood River Hurray for the Riff Raff

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
