Saturday Night In Toledo, Ohio - John Denver
Saturday night in Toledo, Ohio is like being nowhere at all All through the day how the hours rush by You sit in the park and you watch the grass die! Ah, but after the sunset, the dusk and the twilight When shadows of night start to fall They roll back the sidewalk precisely at ten And people who live there are not seen again! Just two lonely truckers from Great Falls, Montana And a salesman from places unknown (-ces unknown) All huddled together in downtown Toledo To spend their big night all alone! You ask how I know of Toledo, Ohio? Well I spent a week there one day They've got entertainment to dazzle your eyes Go visit the bakery and watch the buns rise! Ah, but let's not forget that the folks of Toledo Unselfishly gave us the scale No springs, honest weight, that's the promise they made So smile and be thankful next time you get weighed! And "wiv and wet wiv", let this be our motto Let's let the sleeping dogs lie (-ping dogs lie) And here's to the dogs of Toledo, Ohio Ladies, we bid you goodbye!
