lyrics

For Love I Go South

The sun is out in Charleston
That’s where my baby went,
But here in Boston
The Skies are cold and dim,
I drive north every morning to my job
Two blocks west is my favorite bar
And the best hotdog in the world is just east of town,
But for love I go south

The days are getting longer
At least to me,
But I’m missing you stronger
Everyday of the week,
Oh now I go north when I want to ski
If I want the ocean I just go east
If I want free advice my mother is always west bound,
Oh but for love I go south
Oh for love I go south


Down I-95, the road to heaven is a hell-of-a drive
Sixteen hours and a thousand miles,
Two years and a PhD, before my baby comes home to me
But in less than an hour I found
That for love I go south
Oh for love I go south

The weather man is betting
On a winter storm,
And so I’ll be heading
Where my heart is warm,
There’s an old girlfriend lives north of me
The west side of town you know love is free
And the best hotdog in the world is still east of town,
Oh but for love I go south
Yeah for love I go south….
Oh but for love I go south
