I Love Lake Tahoe
A · 'A' Vs Monkey Kong [2000]
Searching for the snow
We found the Tahoe lakes
Just about the perfect place
Fifty rums at Heavenly
And the nights at Squaw Valley
Yeah, the trees are pretty wide-
That's where Sonny Bono died
All is quiet on New Year's day,
Think I'll try'n impress my mates
So I jump into the lake
Yeah, I won't do that again!
Every year we say the same,
"Try somewhere different for a change"
But we jump onto the plane, yeah,
And here we go again!
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na naaaa
The south shore has the lot
And last month Dave Lee Roth,
He did a solo spot
And some German bloke got shot
Every year we say the same
"Try somewhere different for a change"
But we jump onto the plane, yeah,
And here we go again!
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na naaaa
Uh oh, uh oh, uh oh... (etc.)
Naa naa naa (etc.)
