Lyrics Like They Do Across the River - Albert Hammond

One, two

I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight
There ain't no place for us to go
Where the music's high and the lights are low
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight

I hear a song, I love that tune
Some folks, they never sing the blues
I wanna feel that easy just one time
So, let's go down to the riverside
And dance away this starry night
And do it like they do it, what they do across the river tonight

I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight
Put on your dress of Spanish lace
Lay down your hair, make up your face
And do it like they do it, what they do across the river tonight

Go get a cup, bring out the wine
And put your ruby lips on mine
To carry us above this weary life
We may not have that much, it's true
But you got me and I got you
Let's do it like they do it, what they do across the river tonight

I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight
There ain't no place for us to go
Where the music's high and the lights are low
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight

I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight
'Cause there ain't no place for us to go
Where the music's high and the lights are low
Let's do it like they do it, what they do across the river tonight

I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight
There ain't no place for us to go
Where the music's high and the lights are low
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight
I just wanna do it like they do across the river tonight

Do it like they do it, what they do across the river tonight
