lyrics

Houston, much like Jackson
Strip malls on every lane
Scarsdale, a garage sale
Portland’s in rehab for rain

Crownsville, just an oil spill
Backups down to Cape May
Springfield, real high corn yield
Minot, triple rooms at Days Inn

I hear the pasty boys screaming ma-ma-ma
I hear the country bands playing Elvira
Take me to Branson

Not Glendale, a suburban hell
Angels choke on the flames
Reno, dark casinos
Steamboat springs knee pain again

Bad books on tape
through the Southern States
Attila the Hun
Stands on 21
If you really want to help me now
If you think we’ll work it out somehow
If for you life’s been undone
Take me to Branson ma-ma-ma
Branson Elvira

I hear the pasty boys screaming ma-ma-ma
I hear the country bands playing Elvira

Branson (Missouri)…la la la la la… REPEAT
