Six Mile Water

Me and you used to be like brothers
 On the nights we got drunk to each other
 You know me, I used to have some wit
 It ended up in a shit filled sandpit
 We come from across the border
 We drink the six mile water
 This mongrel needs a new home
 This mongrel needs a new home
 That time when things got better
 We'd take trips across the wire
 Like the night we took the mad acid
 Swore we saw the City Hall on fire
 We come from across the border
 We drink the six mile water
 This mongrel needs a new home
 This mongrel needs a new home
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 But I'm not ready for home
 Bukowski Day, I'm gonna miss it
 We'd get together each month for a day
 All the memories I have are
 Decked out in Presbyterian grey
 We came from across the border
 We drank the six mile water
 This mongrel needs a new home
 This mongrel needs a new home
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 But I'm not ready for home
 Now me and you don't talk of one another
 It never really started out that way
 I always meant to write you a letter
 Always meant to call you some day
 We came from across the border
 We drank the six mile water
 This mongrel needs a new home
 This mongrel needs a new home
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 But I'm not ready for home
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
 I'm sorry
