Some get put in prison
Others put themselves in one
Pittsburgh, you′re the living proof
Some kill themselves living
Others get killed for trying
Trying hard
They kill the ones who break the rules
Row me down
Row me down
Monongahela River
Water down the city's gloom
Oh the lamplight is frozen
On windows and Sundays
So we never see the darkest room
But the heart-fire is burning
And I keep praying one day
We will see the light of truth
Row me down
Row me down
Monongahela River
Water down the city′s gloom
Row your boat to the shore
Monongahela River
Is it water anymore?
Some get put in prison
Others put themselves in one
Pittsburgh, you're the living proof
