south of the border lyrics

I know a freaky young lady
Name of no shame 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 gonna 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 toe the line and move in 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

Yeah, yeah
Ooh, oh, yeah
Ooh, oh, yeah

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave
To a place where you can breathe

'Cos you know you're gonna have to leave
To a place where you can breathe
And you know there's no reprieve
Yeah
