Verse:
I'm gonna ride my llama
From Peru to Texarkana
I wanna ride him good
Through my old neighbourhood
I'm gonna ride him good
In my old neighbourhood
I'm gonna ride him good
In my old neighbourhood


Chorus:
When we got on ship
He brought out something for the trip
And said it's old but it's good
Like any other primitive would

G
Ah.
