On the east side of St. Lawrence Boulevard There's a whole different world People talking and laughing at anything In the summertime whirl Nobody's asking questions 'Bout who you are and where you've been Just willing to live and let live Whatever state you might find yourself in I'm goin' back again someday Down where the river meets the ocean On the west side of St. Lawrence Boulevard It's somethin' else again Another feeling, a different culture And people hangin' with their old friends Nobody seems to notice About what's changing on the other side Someday that we'll come together, Lord Reach across this great divide I'm goin' back again someday Down where the river meets the ocean Yeah yeah I'm goin' back again someday And that's where I'll stay, Lord That's where I'm gonna stay Some people tell no lies Some people wear their hats too tight Some people forgive and forget you, but Some of them never let you They say my home in the land of snow is cold Let me tell you what it's like Eleven months of winter baby and Just one month of pretty thin ice I'm goin' back again someday Down where the river meets the ocean I'll tell you, yeah I'm goin' back again someday And that's where I'll stay, Lord That's where I'm gonna stay And that's where I'll stay, Lord That's where I'm gonna stay
