[4/4, brightly]
FRESNO’S NOT THE PLACE FOR ME
--J. Wrabek
CHORUS:
A D
It’d take a lot to make me go to Fresno;
A E
It’s hot, and it’s dry, and it’s flat as flat can be;
A D
They grow raisins there, but a man can’t live on raisins—
A E A
I’m afraid that Fresno’s just not the place for me.
1.
If you were there, I’d somehow get to Fresno;
I’d be on hand to rescue you, and take you home with me;
I’d tell you that I couldn’t live without you,
But I couldn’t live in Fresno, even with you there with me.
CHORUS:
It’d take a lot to get me down to Fresno;
It’s flat, and it’s hot, and it’s dry as dry can be;
They grow raisins there, but a man can’t live on raisins—
I’m afraid that Fresno’s just not the place for me.
2.
As the ice caps melt, the world is getting warmer;
It’s all gonna be like Fresno in a hundred years or so;
And I’m glad I won’t be ‘round to see it—
If the world’s gonna be like Fresno, I’d have no place to go.
CHORUS:
It’d take a lot to get me down to Fresno;
It’s dry, and it’s flat, and it’s hot as hot can be;
They grow raisins there, but a man can’t live on raisins—
I’m afraid that Fresno’s just not the place for me.
3.
When I die, I want to go to Heaven;
I’ve tried to be real good, and hope they’ll let me in;
Up in Heaven, there ain’t no place like Fresno—
They’re keeping Fresno here on Earth, for people that have sinned.
CHORUS:
It’d take a lot to get me down to Fresno;
It’s hot, and it’s dry, and it’s flat as flat can be;
They grow raisins there, but a man can’t live on raisins—
I’m afraid that Fresno’s just not the place for me.
TAG:
They can keep their Fresno—it’s not the place for me.
