We'll walk our lamb
We'll walk the land
And in the Promised Town, it's gonna be Greek!
We'll have our fill, from the bill; as much we can't stand.
It'll be so lousy,
Oh! We are not waiting!
'Cause we're not going to the Promised Town!
And in the Promised Land, it's gonna be so grand!
We'll have our fill, from the grill; as much as we can stand.
It'll be so great,
Oh! We can hardly wait!
'Cause we're going to the Promised Land!
Pancho puts his line after the "it'll be so lousy" this: "With waffles on my toy airplane!"
Los Angeles give me Norfolk, Virginia
Drop a quarter for ten o' nine.
Los Angeles give me Norfolk, Virginia
Tidewater four-ten-o-nine.
Well it's no mystery now
'Cause I understand.
The dogs on Main Street howl
'Cause they understand.
Working on a t-bone steak
Had a party flying over to the Golden State.
Working on a t-bone steak
A la carte flying over the Golden State.
