Lyrics Jonathan Richman

Jonathan Richman

Reno

Well, a good babysitter can be hard to find

Reno

But I've got Reno on my little mind

Reno

Sometimes it drives me wild the way we can't be alone

Reno Reno Reno

I've gotta take her somewhere where we can't be found

Reno Reno Reno

That's right Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Maybe see Charo or maybe Tom Jones

Reno Reno Reno

Well, I don't know who's there I just wanna get goin'

Reno Reno Reno

Well did I make reservations? Well, no.

Reno Reno Reno

But I don't want to call, I just want to go

Reno Reno Reno

That's right Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Me and her are gonna laugh and laugh

Me and her are gonna have big fun

Just like kids on a school vacation

Down the street we'll run

And I'd like to tell you more but I got to rush

I still love the girl with a school boy crush

Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Find a motel with a velvet bed

Reno Reno Reno

Well the velvet walls are painted chrimson red

Reno Reno Reno

Well find a little lounge open night and day

Reno Reno Reno

Where the FBI meets the CIA

Reno Reno Reno

That's right Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Lonely mountains left and right

Reno Reno Reno

And then there's Reno, a blazing light

Reno Reno Reno

Lonely hills of Nevada sage

Reno Reno Reno

And then there's Reno, center stage

Reno Reno Reno

That's right Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Me and her are gonna have big fun

Me and her are gonna laugh and laugh

Call the babysitter from the hotel room

Tell we'll be back about the third of June

And I'd like to tell more but I've got to go

Still can't find that (?)

Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

What's that Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Oh well I'd like to tell you more but time's getting tight

The days gotten old and here comes the night

Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno

Oh and I still love the girl with a flame that burns

She's played with the kids and now it's my turn

Reno Reno Reno Honey

Reno Reno Reno
