Words adapted by Howard Read
ECE Musical arrangement by gReg Silvus

When yins alone and life is making yins lonely
yins can always go -- dahn tahn.
When yins got worries, all the glass and the stihl works
seem to help, I know - dahn tahn.
Jes listen to the people when they shop in the Big Igl
Linger on the sidewalks where infinitives don't mingle:
My car needs washed.
The words are much shorter there,
Yins can forget all your grammer, teaze up your hair,
And go....
Dahn tahn. yins fihl rihl great when yins
Dahn tahn. nothing needs cleaned en nat,
Dahn tahn, everyone's talking to yin-----s.
Dahn tahn.
Don't hang arahn and let your hunger surrahn yins,
(rest) jeet jyet? (rest) Dahn tahn.
Maybe yins know a little place on the so'---
side where they never close, dahn tahn.
Jes listen to the sahren of a nearby fahr station
Cabbige and perogies are their favorite recreation:
(MY) Sammich needs salt.
The words are much shorter there,
Yins can forget all your grammer, teaze up your hair.

And go..

Dahn Tahn. how bout dem bucs en nat?
Dahn Tahn. dahn at the baseball fihld
Dahn tahn. gotta go aht and meet yin-----s.
Dahn tahn, Dahn Tahn
Dahn tahn, Dahn Tahn
Dahn tahn, Dahn Tahn

(reprise)

Dahn Tahn, where irhn city kicks,
Dahn Tahn, where all the streets need fixed,
Dahn Tahn, where I can speak just like yin.....s.
Dahn Tahn
Dahn Tahn
Daaaaaaaaaahn.
