	I know a freaky young lady
	Name of Cocaine Katie
	She makes my temperature freeze
	She′s got a blood red powder
	When she gives a shout
	She′ll bring you to your knees
	Well, we were being clever playing God games forever
	She said she only meant to please
	But I′m someone′s brother, got a father and a mother
	You know I′m going to have to leave
	South of the border
	I think you oughta
	South of the border
	I think you oughta
	′cos you know you′re gonna have to leave
	To a place where you can breahte
	And you know there′s no reprieve
	There′ll be tears on leaving
	But there won′t be no grieving
	′cos a city soon forgets
	To me it′s magic
	To the landlord it′s tragic
	He′s got another room let
	There′ll be the same old faces in the same old places
	Where my youth was well misspent
	But I tow the line and move the time
	To a town called ′No Regrets′
	South of the border
	I think you oughta
	South of the border
	I think you oughta
	′cos you know you′re gonna have to leave
	To a place where you can breathe
	And you know there′s no reprieve
	′cos you know you′re gonna have to leave
	To a place where you can breathe
	And you know there′s no reprieve
