Goin' back home

To the Village of the Sun

Out in back of Palmdale

Where the turkey farmers run, I done

Made up my mind

And I know I'm gonna go to Sun

Village, good God I hope the

Wind don't blow



It take the paint off your car

And wreck your windshield too,

I don't know how the people stand it,

But I guess they do

Cause they're all still there,

Even Johnny Franklin too

In the Village of the Sun

Village of the Sun

Village of the Sun, son

(Sun Village to you)



Little Mary, and Teddy, and Thelma too

Where Palmdale Bouldevard

Cuts on through

Past the Village Inn & Barbecue

(I heard it ain't there...

Well I hope it ain't true)

Where the stumblers gonna go

To watch the lights turn blue

Where the stumblers gonna go

To watch the lights turn

blue-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-wahhh?



Goin' back home

To the Village of the Sun

Out in back of Palmdale

Where the turkey farmers run, I done

Made up my mind

And I know I'm gonna go to Sun

Village, good God I hope the

Wind don't blow



It take the paint off your car

And wreck your windshield too,

I don't know how the people stand it,

But I guess they do

Cause they're all still there,

Even Johnny Franklin too

In the Village of the Sun

Village of the Sun

Village of the Sun, son

(Sun Village to you)
