Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ain't nothin' like the windy city
Where the station-wagon died
Where the wild dogs meet the fences
And the horsemen, fences ride
Where the flatlands become flatlands
And the caravans collide
I'm just sitting 'neath the mango
Runnin' a tide
[Verse 2]
Took a ride on a bin train
Fifty cars or more
They say the head's just insane
But it's too risky to score
Sittin' on the lawn with Andrea
Draggin' the line for big red
And everyone looks better with a suntan
Easier to get you into bed
[Chorus]
Daughters of the northern coast
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post, no
You know the post is a ghost
[Verse 3]
Lee Marlin went lookin' for a Marvin
While we were lookin' for a line at the pub
Hey, and still, the Black man's starvin'
No wonder nobody wants a job
Helicopter over homestead
Stirrin' all the young blades at night
They're steppin' out there in the sultry summer evening
Their pistols all packed and their badges so bright
[Chorus]
Daughters of the northern coast
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post
You know the post, post is a ghost
[Verse 4]
Took a ride on a bin train
Fifty cars or more
They say the head's just insane
But it's too risky to score
And Andrea's been givin' me a towel down
Standin' on a Palm Beach shore
If those girls keep-a doin' that thing
I can't wait for next year, I'm gonna come back for more
[Chorus]
Daughters of the northern coast
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post
You know the post is a ghost
Daughters of the northern coast
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post
You know the post, post is a ghost
Daughters of the northern coast
Sons of beaches, don't deliver the post
