My Home Town, my home town, my home town, my home town

Doug:
Well, My Home Town is Denver, Colorado
Right up close to God, Oh
It's about a mile high
 
It's pure and clean nestled up there in the Rockies
When you hear a native talk, he's 
Lookin' you right in the eye
 
And you know, if I could be anywhere,
I'd be there
 
My Home Town, my home town, my home town, my home town
 
D.C.:
Well, My Home Town is Chicago, Illinois
Which only goes to show why
I'm a broad shouldered guy
 
It's the railroad hub
It's the backbone of the nation
When the wind blows in your face, ya
Never even blink an eye
 
All:
And you know, if I could be anywhere,
I'd be there
 
My Home Town, my home town, my home town, my home town
My Home Town, my home town, my home town, my home town

Roy:
Well, My Home Town is San Francisco, California
When it's foggy in the morn, ya
Smell that salty ocean air
 
D.C.:
Well, Chicago's got air, and it's also got great theatre,
Seems to me ya better see it er keep yer ideas to yourself
 
Roy:
Hmmm

D.C.:
Hmmm
 
Doug:
Well, Denver's clean

D.C.:
Well, Chicago's sophisticated

Doug:
Denver's high up over …

D.C.:
...rated
While Chicago is refine…

Doug:
...eries
  
D.C.
Yeah?

Doug:
Yeah
  
Doug:
The water's pure

D.C.:
It's the source of the Mississippi

Doug:
No railroad bums

D.C.:
No hippies

Roy:
How about those 49ers?
 
All:
But you know, if I could be anywhere

Doug:
I'd be there

D.C.:
And there

Roy:
And there
  
Denny: 
​Tupelo!
  
All:
Well, now we live in Los Angeles, California
The home of soft core porn, yeah
Where the sky is blue and gray
On a good day
  
And, that's the place where we plan to make a million
Gotta make that great big kill ya know
Before we move away 
  
Still ya know
Since we can't be everywhere
We're glad to be 

Anywhere but there!
