Lyrics
I never was in Fennario,
Though I’ve spent some time down south,
And all the time I was down there,
I had to live from hand to mouth.
One time I had a farm you know,
And a wife and kids and all,
But one by one they fell by the wayside,
As my style began to fall.

CHORUS
Never was in Fennario,
Never, never, never before,
Never want to see her face, my friend,
Never, never, never no more.

No, I never was in Fennario,
But I heard of it sometimes.
That’s the place you can die in the sun,
And a man can lose his mind.
I’ve seen people on the run from Hell,
With their eyes all wild with fear,
But I just stick around myself,
‘Cause it suits me fine right here.

CHORUS

No, I never was in Fennario,
But I heard something went wrong,
Mad man come and tell me all about it
And their strange tormented songs.
I see them as they pass this way,
With their clothes all burnt and torn.
See one or two most every day.
Yes, it’s usual just round now.

CHORUS

On Sundays you see the dust cloud,
As it rolls across the sky,
And the uniforms and the guns and things,
As an army passes by.
You go down there a number of times.
Don’t know what they’ll find,
But I can’t say I never was there,
But it’s sometimes on my mind.

CHORUS

You ask me whether you should go.
You might get there in just awhile,
But if I were you, I’d sit right down,
On a floor that ain’t too hard.
I’ve heard a lot goes on in there,
But what it is I ain’t prepared to say,
But I’d stay right here and have another rest,
And head the other way.

CHORUS
