Someday I'm gonna pack up

And then I'm goin' back up

To that place where sentimental feelings arouse



Where the grass is so green

And the air is so clean

That when the wind is right you can even smell the cows



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

Where time shifts into neutral

And idles away



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

I've got to get back

To that city today



If you're new in town

Then you'll wanna look around

But you don't know where to begin

Well, there's Bubble Gum Alley

And the local car rally

Not to mention the toilets at Madonna Inn



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

Where time shifts into neutral

And idles away



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

I've got to get back

To that city today



It's not much of a hassle

To drive up to Hearst's Castle

And it's not too far from Pismo Beach or Morro Rock



You can visit downtown at your leisure

Because for your shopping pleasure

The stores never close down until five o'clock



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

Where time shifts into neutral

And idles away



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

I've got to get back

To that city today



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

Where time shifts into neutral

And idles away



Take me down (take me down)

To that good old SLO town

I've got to get back

To that city today
