Down By The Seaside Lyrics

Down By The Seaside

Down by the seaside 

 See the boats go sailin' 

 Can the people hear, oh 

 What the little fish are sayin' 

  

 Oh, oh, the people turned away 

 Oh, the people turned away 

  

 Down in the city streets 

 See all the folk go racin', racin' 

 No time left, no-no 

 To pass the time of day 

  

 Hey, hey, yeah, the people turned away 

 The people turned away 

 So far away, so far away 

  

 See how they run, see how they run, see how they run, see how they run 

 Run-run, run-run, run-run 

  

 Do you still do the twist 

 Do you find you remember things that well 

 I wanna tell you 

 Some folk twistin' every day 

 Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell 

 Ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha, oh 

  

 Out in the country 

 Hear the people singin' 

 Singin' 'bout their progress 

 Knowin' where they're goin' 

 Yeah, yeah 

  

 Oh, oh, oh, oh, the people turned away 

 Yes, the people turned away 

  

 Sing loud for the sunshine 

 Pray hard for the rain 

 And show your love for Lady Nature 

 And she will come back again 

 Yes she will, yes she will 

  

 Oh, oh, oh, the people turned away 

 The people turned away 

  

 Don't they know that they're goin
