lyrics

So long Modesto
I’m sorry but you’re a mess though
And I can no longer be
in the town amongst the almond trees

I gave you all my best though
You couldn’t help but bring me down
Didn’t like who I was becoming
Didn’t like where I was bound

Even friends I had had for years
Were starting to turn on me
In the end they did me a favor
In the end they help’d set me free

And Bob is dead
He couldn’t go on
His body gave out
In search of a song

The last time I saw him
He could only blink
But when I told him I was finally getting out of here
He managed to smile at me

Now Ray’s still there to fight the fight
By playing music through the night
So please don’t take him for granted
Please don’t turn out his light

And Cici you should go back to Hawaii
Your friends may still be there
Where black is the color of the night sky
And white is the pearl in your eye

So long Modesto
I’m sorry but you know you’re a mess though
But you will still always be
The town that raised me
