Westchester County
Loudon Wainwright III
[Intro] [Verse] I was raised here in Westchester County I was taught in the Country Day School We were richer than most I don’t mean to boast But I swam in the country club pool With a father from Hewlett Long Island And a mother from Tifton GA During the war in the Marine Corps They met and then married one day I was raised here in Westchester County My brother my sisters and I Oh our dad went to work every day in NY On train in suit and tie I remember those coming out parties Where us country club kids had our fun Steal kiss cop feel off girl in high heels Oh we all came in our cumberbuns I was raised here in Westchester County Tennis courts golf courses galore By the country club pool at the Country Day School I learned manners oh so much more I remember those big Sunday dinners Round that dining room table we all sat Carve turkey ham roast leg of lamb Dinner finished in ten minutes flat I was raised here in Westchester County I was taught in the Country Day School We were richer than most I don’t mean to boast But I swam in the country club pool In the country club pool
