Beautiful South The Gates

for lively discussion No time for televised debates The well-meaning soon become the well meant It's the hard sell or hell at the gates, the gates The gates, the gates

should fall Would any one hear me screaming behind these castle walls? There's no one here at all Behind these castle walls Observing the estate through the gate

is e'rything my nigga I ain't bitter, but if I gave you the finger it'd be behind the trigger Faggot-ass nigga livin in a gated community Up in radio,

city Twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah Oh, what a beautiful city Oh, what a beautiful city Oh, what a beautiful city Twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah Oh, twelve gates

Becky was a beauty from south Alabama Her daddy had a heart like a nine pound hammer Think he even did a little time in the slammer What was I thinkin

for questions from the centuries asked. Reach out to touch the universe, embrace the beauty beyond this earth. And we rode the cosmic snake past the gates

Three gates in the east Three gates in the west Three gates in the north Three gates in the south That makes twelve gates to the city Hallelujah Chorus

beautiful city Twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah Three gates in the East Three gates in the West Three gates in the North Three gates in the South

's gettin hard to give 'em passes when They act as if they came up on the south side of Nazareth Can't imagine this, it's like a beauty pageant Where
