I was up when I put her down


I was thinking 'bout a Bordertown


And I sang it out in a song


In a song, Lord, in a song.


It's a shame and it's a crime.
Can't see nothin' eye to eye.
Water's up but the levee's down
In a bordertown, in a bordertown.

A lonely man will settle for
Something less than he adores
And he'll sing it out in a song
In a song, Lord, in a song.

I was wrong and I was right.
And I was thinkin' that I just might
Pack it up to settle down
In a bordertown, in a bordertown.


[Chorus]

The difference, I percieve


Ain't nothing but a dream


In us all, in us all, Lord, in us all.


From Oregon to Shenandoah
I have ridden the highway roads
And I sang it out in a song
In a song, Lord, in a song.

Every city is the same
And every river has a name
Like the stars shining down
On a bordertown, on a bordertown.

[Chorus]
The difference, I percieve
Ain't nothing but a dream
In us all, in us all, Lord, in us all.
In us all, Lord, in us all.
In us all...
