How Can You Live In The Northeast - Paul Simon[00:00:00]
We heard the fireworks[00:00:22]
Rushed out to watch the sky[00:00:25]
Happy go lucky fourth of July[00:00:28]
How can you live in the Northeast[00:00:33]
How can you live in the South[00:00:36]
How can you build on the banks of a river[00:00:39]
When the flood water pours from the mouth[00:00:42]
How can you be a Christian[00:00:45]
How can you be a Jew[00:00:47]
How can you be a Muslim a Buddhist a Hindu[00:00:50]
How can you[00:00:54]
Weak as the winter sun we enter life on earth[00:00:57]
Names and religion comes just after date of birth[00:01:01]
Then everybody gets a tongue to speak[00:01:07]
And everyone hears an inner voice[00:01:10]
A day at the end of the week to wonder and rejoice[00:01:13]
If the answer is infinite light[00:01:20]
Why do we sleep in the dark[00:01:23]
How can you live in the Northeast[00:01:29]
How can you live in the South[00:01:32]
How can you build on the banks of a river[00:01:35]
When the flood water pours from the mouth[00:01:38]
How can you tattoo your body[00:01:40]
Why do you cover your head[00:01:43]
How can you eat from a rice bowl[00:01:45]
The holy man only breaks bread[00:01:49]
We watched the fireworks 'til they were fireflies[00:02:03]
Followed a path of stars over the endless skies[00:02:08]
How can you live in the Northeast[00:02:25]
How can you live in the South[00:02:28]
How can you build on the banks of a river[00:02:31]
When the flood water pours from the mouth from the mouth[00:02:34]
I've been given all I wanted[00:03:04]
Only three generations off the boat[00:03:09]
I've harvested and I've planted[00:03:14]
I'm wearing my father's old coat[00:03:19]
