Meet Me by the River’s Edge The Gaslight Anthem

[Intro]
See, I've been here for twenty-eight years
Pounding sweat beneath these wheels
Tattooed lines beneath our skin
No surrender, my Bobby Jean

[Verse 1]
See, I've been here for twenty-eight years
Poundin' sweat beneath these wheels
We tattooed lines beneath our skin
No surrender, my Bobby Jean
And we've been burned by all our fears
Just from growing up around here
Our fathers' factories marked our cards
While Eden burned against the stars

[Chorus]
And Sally said, Sally said
"I can't take no more regret
It cut us deep into our souls
Came and climbed into our bed"
And Sally said, Sally said
"Meet me by the river's edge
We're going to wash these sins away
Or else we won't come back again"
