(Jeddo, Jeddo, the Farmer's Paradise)
J-e-d-d-o..... J-e-d-d-o
I'm sure you've heard of the ghetto
Down around New York City
But I bet you've never heard of.. J-e-d-d-o
I mean Jeddo, Jeddo, the Farmer's Paradise
You'll find this place called Jeddo
In the state of Michigan
In the grand old U.S.A.
Just across the Bridge
If you've never been in the country
Or in a cornfield patch
Drive on down to Jeddo
and pick yourself a batch
(from O'Connor)
Do-do-do-do..... J-e-d-d-o
I'm sure you've heard of the ghetto
Down around New York City
But I bet you've never heard of.. J-e-d-d-o
I mean Jeddo, Jeddo, the Farmer's Paradise
The farms are big in Jeddo
And I ain't messin' you around
Dairy farms are widely spread
It's where contented cows are found
So hurry on down to Jeddo
Where the grass still grows tall
Where farmers still are farmers
Thank God for them all
(ah, yes, the Lamb boys)
Do-do-do-do..... J-e-d-d-o
I'm sure you've heard of the ghetto
Down around New York City
But I bet you've never heard of.. J-e-d-d-o
I mean Jeddo, Jeddo, the Farmer's Paradise
I met some folks from Jeddo
Here in Point Edward town
I asked them how to find this place
And would they show me around
I followed them across the Bridge
Down roads I've never seen
And when we got to Jeddo
My eyes were seein' green
(oh, yes, I was)
Do-do-do-do..... J-e-d-d-o
I'm sure you've heard of the ghetto
Down around New York City
But I bet you've never heard of.. J-e-d-d-o
I mean Jeddo, Jeddo, the Farmer's Paradise
This place is sure exciting
And here's some reasons why
The largest dairy farmers
Would shake hands with you or I
They treated me just like fam'ly
They made me feel at home
The times I had in Jeddo
Are the best I've ever known
(oh, yes, they were)
Do-do-do-do..... J-e-d-d-o
I'm sure you've heard of the ghetto
Down around New York City
But I bet you've never heard of.. J-e-d-d-o
I mean Jeddo, Jeddo, the Farmer's Paradise
Do-do-do-do..... J-e-d-d-o..... J-e-d-d-o.....
(yell) Jed-do!
Oh.. sake can you see..
