She lives in Mojave in a Winnebago His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato
She's in love with a boy >From the rodeo Who pulls the rope on the chute When they let those suckers go
He's a slobberin' drunk at the Palomino They give him thirty days in San Ber'dino
Well there's forty-four men Stashed away in tank "C" An' there's only one shower But it don't apply to Bobby
You may think they're Dumb an' lonely But you're wrong 'Cause their love is strong Stacked-up hair An' a cheap little ring They don't care 'Cause it don't mean a thing
Looka there... They don't care
Best-est way that They can feel-o Out on the highway Rollin' a wheel-o He's her Tootsie She's for real-o Trailer park heaven It's a real good deal-o Real good deal-o Real good deal-o Real good deal-o
The rest of their lives In San Ber'dino Gonna spend the rest of their lives In San Ber'dino The rest of their lives In San Ber'dino Come on with me Come on with me Come on with me Down in San Ber'dino Just 60 miles, 60 miles Down the San Ber'dino freeway They got some dark green air An' you can choke all day That's right! Gonna spend the rest of their lives Rest of their lives Rest of their lives
