	Now we're in twin cities
	Where the
	Mississippi rises and then falls
	One is Minneapolis and the other no less famous is
	St. Paul’s
	There are stray dogs on the highway
	And the local farmers moan about lack of rain
	When the winds blew last winter
	I swear England had another hurricane
	Hurricane….
	And we are twin cities, and we are that river
	From the standing still, we will be delivered
	Last time in
	New York was with
	Mandela and
	Madonna and
	The Mets They’re icons of an era where that’s about as famous as it gets (That’s what I call famous, babe)
	I’ve seen cities full of ticker-tape, and cotton-trains through
	Utah disappearing out of sight
	But I’m standing in a city that’s as pretty as an ocean in the night
	And we are twin cities, and we are that ocean
	From the standing still, we are set in motion
	And no one calls me up to say “
	How long are you going to be away?” (Are you ever coming back?)
	Yeah yeah… (Are you ever coming back?)
	No one calls me up to say “
	Don’t let that life lead you astray” (Don’t forget to come back)
	Yeah! (Don’t forget to come back)
	They were rioting in
	Detroit on the night the
	Pistons won it back to back
	I was out of there the next day, and
	I only had just two bags to pack
	And we are twin cities, and we are one river
	From the standing still, we will be delivered
	And we are twin cities, and we are one ocean
	From the standing still, we are set in motion
	Yeah… We are twin cities…
	We are one river… (We… are… twin… cities…)
	One ocean…
	We are twin cities… (We… are… twin… cities…)
	We are one river…
	Yeah… One ocean…..
	We… are… twin… cities… one ocean….

	Now we' re in twin cities
	Where the
	Mississippi rises and then falls
