Sonya Heller and Bill White - Up The Charles River

from State of the Heart 3 by Bill White and Friends

/

lyrics

What you come back here for?
Nobody waiting for you on the river shore
We all was glad to see you go
Nobody round here wants to see you no more

so keep on rowing
keep on going
up the charles river
there is no place
around here for you to stay

this land has all been claimed
the streets have all been named
so keep your rudder fixed
on the eastern way
then keep on rowing harder
across the sea
when you reach the boston harbor

so keep on rowing
keep on going
up the charles river
there is no place
around here for you to stay

you came to this country
on another mans name
there was blood on his passport
and you were to blame
one of many victims
you assigned to their deaths
they should have hung you in nuremberg
with hess and the rest
