Shame On You Lyrics

    My friends they wash the windows
    And they shine in the sun
    They tell me wake up early in the morning sometime
    See what a beautiful job we've done

    I say let's put on some tunes
    Sing a long and dolittle all day
    Go down to the riverside take off our shoes
    And wash these sins away

    And the river said
    La la la it said shame on you
    And the river said
    La la la it said shame on you

    I go down to chicano city park
    Cause it makes me feel so fine
    And when the weeds go down you can see up close
    In the dead of the winter time

    But when the summer comes everythings in bloom
    And you wouldn't know it's there
    And the white folks like to pretend it's not
    But their music's in the air

    And you can hear em singing
    La la la they said shame on you
    You can feel em dancing
    La la la they said shame on you

    My friend tanner she says you know
    Me and jesus we're of the same heart
    The only thing that keeps us distant
    Is that i keep fuckin up

    I said come on down to chicano city park
    And wash your blues away
    The beautiful ladies walk right by
    You know i never know what to say

    And they'll be singing
    Oo la la la la la la la la shame on you
    And they'll be dancing
    Ooo la la la they said shame on you
    Shame on you

    Let's go road block trippin in the middle of the night
    Up in gainesville town
    There'll be blue lights flashin down the long dirt road
    When they ask me to step out

    They say we've been looking for illegal immigrants
    Can we check your car
    I say you know it's funny
    I think we were on the same boat back in 1694

    And i said
    Oo la la la la la la la la shame on you
    They'll be dancing
    La la la i said shame on you
    I said
    Oo la la la la la la la la la la shame on you
    Shame on you la la
    La la la la la shame on you
    I said
    I said
    La la la shame on you
    I'll be dancing
    And they'll be singing
    La la la i said shame on you
    Shame on you

    Road block trippin in the middle of the night
    Gainesville town
    Blue lights flashin down the long dirt road
