Down By the Seaside

Down by the seaside See the boats go sailin' Can the people hear Oh, what the little fish are sayin'? Oh, oh, people turned away Oh, people turned away Down in the city streets See all the folk go racin', racin' No time left, no-no To pass the time of day Babe-babe, yeah The people turned away The people turned away So far away, so far away See how they run, see how they run See how they run, see how they run Do you still do the twist? Do you find you remember things that well? I want to tell you Some go twistin' every day Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell Ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, oh Out in the country Hear the people singing Singing 'bout their progress Knowing where they're going Yeah Oh-oh, people turned away Yes, people turned away Sing loud for the sunshine Pray hard for the rain And show your love for lady nature And she will come back again Oh-oh, oh-oh, the people turned away The people turned away (don't they know to turn away?)
