Joy to the protector
To the playful policeman
How lucky this one guy is
Now his girls count ten
A sign, immortal power
But mind you one fine note
His nasty crave for seconds
Made her his grandgirl, too
Bridge across the river
The sun in his blue eyes
A tear for every turn-down
Let's jump from way up high
Bridge across the river
The sun in his blue eyes
A tear for every turn-down
Let's jump from way up high
It's an early morning
Family gathered round
Dinner table nicest meal
But still we miss one tiny thing
Go out, get some, get it now
Fresh and beatific
In the attic from a rope
The butcher in his overcoat
Bridge across the river
The sun in his blue eyes
A tear for every turn-down
Let's jump from way up high
The calls remain unanswered
No shit, no ring, no see for days
Mountain deep, woods up high
Swinging from the old oak tree
For in a sound body, a sound mind will thrive
All hail this ol' rotten town, rotten town
Bridge across the river
The sun in his blue eyes
A tear for every turn-down
Let's jump from way up high
Bridge across the river
The sun in his blue eyes
A tear for every turn-down
Let's jump from way up high
