Southtown Girls - The Hold Steady

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Take Lyndale to the horizon

Take Nicollet out to the ocean

Take Penn Ave out to the 494

And meet me right in front of the fabric store

Don't look me in the eye, look over at the theater

I'm a little bit surprised, you didn't tell me there'd be three of you

Hey Bloomington, what'd you let them do to you?

Now I think they're almost through with you

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Take Lyndale back to the southside

Take Nicollet up to the Vietnamese

Take Penn Ave back up to the northside

Take Lowery East to the quarry

Meet me right in front of the Rainbow Foods, I got a brown paper bag and black buckle shoes

And if anything seems weird then just cruise

Meet me right in front of the Party City, that two-sided tape it gets way too sticky

I got a bad case of noisemaker blues

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay

Southtown girls won't blow you away

But you know that they'll stay
