Rancho Cucamonga
Down in Rancho Cucamonga
There's a girl that wants to
Get me high 'til I can't come down
And I had my inhibition
But my intuition
This time, lord, done let me down
Well, I'm broke down again
Good to see you, my friend
I hope you got a helpin' hand
'Cause in Rancho Cucamonga
Ain't no place for a triflin' man
She lived down on the river
She claims that I'm a giver
But she give me too much credit, y'all
I guess she just likes my style
She been around awhile
And she always answers when I call
Well, I know that I'm in trouble
When she starts pourin' doubles
But she picks me up if I fall
She'll be callin' out my name
All night, while we rattle these walls
I'm singin' just because you want to
Doesn't mean you have to
I should be changin' my ways
This pasture ain't no greener
Should be livin' cleaner
Maybe I'll see brighter days
And if the truth was known
I did this on my own
And, friend, I'll tell you now, it don't pay
But in Rancho Cucamonga, a man can't find no other way
Well she said, "I got a sister
But let me tell you, mister
Don't let me catch you steppin' out."
But, man, I outta warn ya
Them girls in California
Got them curves momma told you about
Well, I broke all them rules
And I played it cool
'Til one night, son, I laid her on down
Then I got caught in between
When that first one caught us messin' around
I'm singin' just because you want to
Doesn't mean you have to
I should be changin' my ways
This pasture ain't no greener
Should be livin' cleaner
Maybe I'll see brighter days
And if the truth was known
I did this on my own
And, friend, I'll tell you now, it don't pay
But in Rancho Cucamonga a man can't find no other way
I said in Rancho Cucamonga a man can't find no other way
There's a girl that wants to
Get me high 'til I can't come down
And I had my inhibition
But my intuition
This time, lord, done let me down
Well, I'm broke down again
Good to see you, my friend
I hope you got a helpin' hand
'Cause in Rancho Cucamonga
Ain't no place for a triflin' man

I said in Rancho Cucamonga a man can't find no other way
