I have lived in Poughkeepsie in the past and live about 5 minutes away now. He pronounces it wrong. He says PO-kip-ssee when it's really more like P-kip-see. The "-ough" is more or less silent. Yeah, I'm just being relly anal though. Cool song. The banks of Poughkeepsie are a very beautiful place (if you ignore some of the pollution around). Wouldn't really recommend swimming their with your love though. The Hudson River is not really known for it's swimming. It has gotten a lot better though, as far as pollution.
