Intro
A D5 E x2
Verse
My friends they wash the windows
and they shine in the sun
They tell me wake up early in the morning sometime
see what beautiful job we done
I say let's put on some tunes, sing along
do little all day
Go down to the riverside take off our shoes and
wash these sins away
Chorus
The river said la la la said shame on you
The river said la la la said shame on you
Verse
I go down to chiano city park
cause it makes me feel so fine
When the weeds go down you can see up close
in the dead of the winter time
But when summer comes everything's in bloom
and you wouldn't know it's there
The white folks like to pretend it's not
but their music's in the air
Chorus
You can hear them singing la la la said shame on you
You can feel them dancing la la la said shame on you
Verse
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 down to chiano city park
wash away your blues away
The beautiful ladies walk on by
You know I never know what to say
Chorus
And they'll be singing oo la la said shame on you
They'll be dancing la la la said shame on you
Interlude
A E7 x2
Guitar Solo
A D5 E x4
Verse
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 they are 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
Chorus
Ooh la la said shame on you
They'll be dancing la la la said shame on you
Shame on you la la la shame on you shame on you (repeat and fade)
