Richard Swift - Lake Superior lyrics

[Verse 1] On a stretch of sand, sweet northern breeze Manitowoc put Avery on the beach Your alibi, will never do When the whole town's got it out for you Judge fox, the Great Lake stain Got Superior wanting to pull its own drain To abandon the shore, where the poor get whipped And the fat get fatter and the rich stay rich Where the mice of men are chained and bruised Where to stand accused is to admit you lose [Chorus] I wanna know People outdoor Ain't gonna go out and act insane Insane My Baby girl Out in a world All alone burns a hole in my brain My brain I wanna know People outdoor Ain't gonna go out and act insane Insane My baby boy Pride and joy He's gonna go out and do the same Just saying [Verse 2] In the hall of harm disgraceful sounds Manitowoc knows how to gavel pound They crack it right and shoot on site Do you know where your baby is tonite? The red tide is back again Old Superior's new McCarthy clan Back on the shore, where the poor get whipped And the fat get fatter and the rich stay rich Where the mice of men are chained and bruised Where to stand accused is to admit you lose [Chorus x2] I wanna know People outdoor Ain't gonna go out and act insane Insane My Baby girl Out in a world All alone burns a hole in my brain My brain I wanna know People outdoor Ain't gonna go out and act insane Insane My baby boy Pride and joy He's gonna go out and do the same Just saying
