Going’ down to Ed’s

Well I’m going’ down to Ed’s
Gonna have a ‘cheese or cheese’
‘Atomic fries’
You can’t stop me
‘Cos I’m going’ there right now

Gonna have a beer
“Rocking goose” is on the juke-box
Tell no lies
Don’t try to stop me
‘Cos I’m going there right now

Don’t try to hold me back
My mind is set on cheese
People come from miles around
To do just as they please
Within reason…
You’d get arrested
If you caused a lot of trouble
But otherwise
The cops won’t touch you
If you just go there to eat

You could have a ‘puppy-dog’
And you could have a ’shake’
I don’t see what’s wrong with that
So open up the gate

‘Cos we’re going’ down to Ed’s
Gonna have a ‘cheese or cheese’
‘Atomic fries’
You can’t stop me
‘Cos I’m going’ there right now

Well I never truly could whistle
But it hasn’t held me back in life at all
Just keep on tryin’
And hope the cops don’t pull me in

Gonna have a beer
That might help to whet that whistle
But anyway
Don’t try to stop us
‘Cos we’re goin’ down to Ed’s

Well I’m going’ down to Ed’s
I don’t plan to get arrested
But you never know
If it’s a crime
To have a cheeseburger and beer
