Seven islands, to the high side of the bay,
'Cross the bay
To the sunset, through the blue light
Of a fiery autumn haze
We went walking, on the high side
Of the bay, on a chilly morn
And we saw how, leaves had fallen
On the beds, where trees are born

Any man in his right mind
Could not fail to be made aware
Any woman with a gift of wisdom
Would not seek her answers there

Seven islands, to the high side
Of the bay, if you're looking west
To the sunset, you can see it
All in fiery autumn dress
Anytime would be the right time
To come up, to your bed of boughs
Anybody with a wish to wander
Could not fail, but to be aroused

Living high in the city
Guess you think it's a pretty good way
You get to learn
- but when you get burned
- you got nothing to say
You seem to think
- because you got chicken to go
- you're in luck

Fortune will not find you,
- in your mansion or your truck
Brothers will desert you
- when you're down and s___-out-of-luck

Look around at the morning
Guess you're doing the best you can
Surely you know that when you go
Nobody gives you a hand
Think of the air you're breathin' in
Think of the time you waste
Think of the right and wrong
And consider the frown on your face

It's time you tried living on the high side
Of the bay, you need a rest
Any woman or a man with a wish to
Fade away could be so blessed

Fortune will not find you
- in your mansion turned to gold
Brothers will desert you
- when your nights turn long and cold

If you feel it
- you better believe it
You're gonna see it
- so you really know
It is rising like a feather
Dipping and dancing from below
There's a new wave
- that is breaking
In the wake of a passing ship
Every nation's gonna be shaken
Put it together, don't let it slip

It's time you tried living on the high side
Of the bay, you need a rest
Any man or a woman with a wish to
Fade away could be so blessed
----
Seven islands, to the high side of the bay
'Cross the bay
To the sunset, through the blue light
Of a fiery autumn haze
To the sunset, through the blue light
Of a fiery autumn haze
