San Joaquin

In San Joaquin south of the delta
They damned up all the rivers around
You'll spend your days chasing
With the summer sun blazing
A lakebed for your toes to drown

We've got ditch banks east of Visalia
Quarries that can swallow the night
You'll find me sunbaked sitting
At a Taqueria grinning
With Cervezas and Asada done right

When they ask me
Have you seen San Joaquin?
Take a look at your plate and maybe you'll just know what I mean

Watch out for the Orosi boys
They'll cut you if you don't walk right
Then take you by the hand
Have you play in the band
It'll be Rootstomp rockin' all night

When they ask me
Have you seen San Joaquin?
And when they ask me
Like it's something that I don't believe
When they ask me
Have you seen San Joaquin?
Take a good look at your plate and maybe you'll just know what I mean

When they ask me
Have you seen San Joaquin?
And when they ask me
Like it's something that I don't believe
When they ask me
Have you seen San Joaquin?
Take a good look at your plate and maybe you'll just know what I mean
