F#m            E            F#m       
Where were the rapists when I was a child
E                 F#m
(Southside of the world)
             E                  F#m       
They were my neighbours, that's why I'm so wild
E                 C#m 
(Southside of the world)
               E              C#m
Where were the drunkards that shot with their guns ?
E          C#m
(Ahhhhhhh)
                     E        C#m
And closed the shops early so we could have fun ?
E           F#m
(Ahhhhhhh)

They went to the southside to make their own laws

Away from the knowing of innocent jaws

If we want happy families, it's what we must do

[Bridge]

G                 A
Give me donkey ears !
G                 A
Give me honkey tears !
G                 A
Give me black blood !
G                A
And that of queers !
   A           Bm
To mix with my own

Come with me to the southside where we'll make our home
A

Come with me to the southside where we'll make our home
