Don't try to understand 'em, just tie and rope and brand 'em
They're living in a wholesome town, we're living in a wholesome city
Locusts in the air tonight and WASPs are on my wife
Let's lynch a nigger in that tree: the christian way of life
WHOLESOME TOWN WHOLESOME CITY where the desert air is sweet
When you've got your spurs on and some leather round your feet
WHOLESOME TOWN WHOLESOME CITY get on your knees and pray
We'll relieve the bordom of a midtown, U.S.A.
Don't try to understand them, just tie and rope and hang and brand and
Tie and rope and hang and brand them
Living in a wholesome town. Living in a wholesome city.
WHOLESOME TOWN WHOLESOME CITY where the desert air is sweet
When you've got your spurs on and some leather round your feet
WHOLESOME TOWN WHOLESOME CITY get on your knees and pray
We'll relieve the bordom of a midtown, U.S.A.
