NORTH OF THE BORDER WHERE THE CACTI IS SCARCE AND THIN THERE'S A PLACE WITHOUT MUCH TASTE THEY CALL RAMADA INN NOW RAMADA, IT IS A SPANISH NAME THEY BROUGHT IT WITH THEM WHEN THEY CAME AND THOUGH THE SPANISH HAVE GONE AWAY RAMADA INN IS HERE TO STAY Chorus THEY'RE LIKE A RASH UPON THE NATION WHERE THE WEARY TRAVELER GETS TRAPPED ON VACATION NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE GOING OR WHERE YOU HAVE BEEN YOU WON'T ESCAPE RAMADA INN LA LA LA WHAT A RIP-OFF TAKE A TIP OFF ME LA LA LA... Bridge MEDIOCRE IT'S IN THERE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN GOOD AND BAD AND ONCE YOU LEAVE YOU WON'T QUITE BELIEVE WHAT AN AVERAGE TIME YOU'VE HAD Chorus 1 THEY'RE LIKE A RASH UPON THE NATION WHERE THE WEARY TRAVELER GETS TRAPPED ON VACATION "HECK, YEAH, HI THERE, THIS IS ROBERT BOB HERE AT THE RAMADA INN LOUNGE LISTEN, PUSSYCATS, I WANT YOU TO DRINK UP AND STICK AROUND BECAUSE I'M GOING TO BE PLAYING ALL YOUR A.M.
