Lyrics:
See the ancient river bed
See where all the follies have led
Down by the water
Down by the old main drag

I was just some tow-headed teen
Feeling round for fingers to get in between
Down by the water
Down by the old main drag

(chorus)
The season rubs me wrong
The summer swells anon
So knock me down, tear me up
But I would bare it all broken just to fill my cup
Down by the water
Down by the old main drag

Sweet descendants rabble around
The pretty little patter of a seaboard town
Rolling in the water
Rolling in the old main drag

All dolled up in gabardine
The last flash of Lita, pure nineteen
Queen of the water
Queen of the old main drag

(chorus)
The season rubs me wrong
The summer swells anon
So knock me down, tear me up
But I would bare it all broken just to fill my cup
Down by the water
Down by the old main drag

(chorus)
The season rubs me wrong
The summer swells anon
So knock me down, tear me up
But I would bare it all broken just to fill my cup
Down by the water
Down by the old main drag

Down by the water
down by the old main drag
Down by the water
Down by the old main drag

  • We have amazing music, you jackass. Every generation does. Early 90's had shitty music to go with the bad, along with the 60's, 70's, 80's and every goddamn decade and century in history. To hell with you people who praise these bands as some kind of prodigy amongst a generation full of bad music. It's not true, we have fucking absolutely amazing music, just learn to sift through the bullshit on the radio and actually listen. Music never stops being good. Fuck you and your stupid ass comment.

  • @jwasko11 Although you make a good point, I have to disagree to an extent. while there is definitly still good music to be found, but there is a lot more of the rubbish than in the past. Even when you look back to the "cheesy rubbish" of past generations, it still had more musical credability than the recycled tripe thats spoon fed to the general population now.

  • esa le gusta a minovia asiq pongale me gusta! .

  • @TomcatJones Radio 1 has amazing music most of the time. I have a stunner of a playlist at the moment so if you need some example of current music far superior to older stuff i am your man. I spent ages searching for amazing music no one has heard of.

  • if you are listening to the radio.. you are being spoonfed their crap like he said. you won't find any good there.

  • @digiphonic I think the amount of good music is the same, it's just that less good music gets signed and put out by record labels anymore, as catchy sells better than good. There used to be music that was catchy AND good, but money-makers realized that people will listen to catchy even if it sucks shit, so why bother putting extra effort into making it good? We're capable of great things, especially in this day and age. But it's a shame that commercialism overpowers true creativity.

  • @jwasko11 I totally understand where your coming from, but if you take the Grammy awards for instance, many of the artists who performed or won yet alone were nominated for awards were mainly the cookie cutter pop stars/ or the typical shit on the radio today. Although there are still good bands like this one, or Zac Brown Band today, they are less popular. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion about music so I seriously think you need to calm your shit bro. That's all.

  • @digiphonic Couldn't agree more

  • No Grammy :(

  • Like if you think they should a have a Grammy

  • I miss Picaresque.
