She lives in Mojave in a Winnebago
His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato


She's in love with a boy
>From the rodeo
Who pulls the rope on the chute

When they let those suckers go

He's a slobberin' drunk at the Palomino

They give him thirty days in San Ber'dino

Well there's forty-four men

Stashed away in tank "C"
An' there's only one shower
But it don't apply to Bobby


You may think they're
Dumb an' lonely

But you're wrong
'Cause their love is strong
Stacked-up hair

An' a cheap little ring
They don't care
'Cause it don't mean a thing


Looka there...
They don't care


Best-est way that
They can feel-o

Out on the highway
Rollin' a wheel-o
He's her Tootsie

She's for real-o
Trailer park heaven
It's a real good deal-o

Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o


The rest of their lives
In San Ber'dino

Gonna spend the rest of their lives
In San Ber'dino
The rest of their lives

In San Ber'dino
Come on with me
Come on with me

Come on with me
Down in San Ber'dino
Just 60 miles, 60 miles

Down the San Ber'dino freeway
They got some dark green air
An' you can choke all day

That's right!
Gonna spend the rest of their lives
Rest of their lives

Rest of their lives

Say now

Ain't talkin' 'bout Fontana
Ain't talkin' 'bout uh uh
Ain't talkin' 'bout uh uh

Ain't talkin' 'bout uh uh
Ain't talkin' 'bout the Redlands, no no
ZULCH is the auto works

I'm telling you
That's where they take
All the cars that they hurt
Come on and let's all go down to San Ber'dino
Ooo-ooo

Ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo
Let's-a go down down down
Down in San Ber'dino
Wouldja b'lieve it

San Ber'dino
San Ber'dino
(Got to call it)
San Ber'dino
(C'mere)

San Ber'dino
etc., etc., etc.
The rest of their lives
In San Ber'dino


Oh Bobby, I'm sorry you gotta head like a potato
I really am
