How Can You Live In The Northeast - Paul Simon
We heard the fireworks
Rushed out to watch the sky

Happy go lucky fourth of July

How can you live in the Northeast
How can you live in the South
How can you build on the banks of a river
When the flood water pours from the mouth
How can you be a Christian
How can you be a Jew

How can you be a Muslim a Buddhist a Hindu
How can you

Weak as the winter sun we enter life on earth
Names and religion comes just after date of birth

Then everybody gets a tongue to speak
And everyone hears an inner voice
A day at the end of the week to wonder and rejoice

If the answer is infinite light

Why do we sleep in the dark

How can you live in the Northeast
How can you live in the South
How can you build on the banks of a river
When the flood water pours from the mouth
How can you tattoo your body

Why do you cover your head

How can you eat from a rice bowl
The holy man only breaks bread

We watched the fireworks 'til they were fireflies

Followed a path of stars over the endless skies

How can you live in the Northeast
How can you live in the South
How can you build on the banks of a river

When the flood water pours from the mouth from the mouth

I've been given all I wanted

Only three generations off the boat

I've harvested and I've planted

I'm wearing my father's old coat
