S saturday night in toledo, ohio.

 

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 sidewalks 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

Oh add all 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 scales

No springs, honest weight, that’s the promise they made

So smile and be thankful next time you get weighed

 

And wive and wet wive

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
