Ode To Gene

I got lost in Los Banos
I didn’t know which way to turn
Do I turn on G St., on F or on E St.?
I don’t think I’ll ever learn.

I got lost in Los Banos
Finding my way here from the Park.
It’s a good thing I came during daylight,
That I didn’t arrive after dark.
I’d still be out roving
The streets of Los Banos
And wouldn’t know where to debark.

I shouldn’t get lost in Los Banos
I’ve been coming here since I was knee high.
Perhaps it’s my wife who gave poor advice,
Do you think I’ll tell her? Not I.
