Let me make it clear

It rains in Seattle more than it does here

We have lots of fun

Raising bananas one by one

I must be, I must be in Oregon.


The sky is hanging low

As a clothesline full of clothes

As your hair all full of rain

As my heart sometimes does

I must be, oh I must be in Oregon.


My life, it got too wild

Down the hole I followed Alice

When I needed peace and quiet

Well, I popped up in Corvallis

I must be, I must be in Oregon.


If you want a little snow

Up to Mount Hood you can go

My baby blows me away

In lingerie and Pendleton

I must be, I must be in Oregon.


Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain

Rain, rain, rain, sun, rain

Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain

Rain, rain, rain, rain, sun

I must be, I must be in Oregon.


I'm gonna go up on the Umpqua

Catch me a big old trout

I'm gonna go up on the Umpqua

And drag his bad ass trout ass out.


Well just the other day

My friend Jim stopped by to say

His old Volvo didn't die

It just completely rusted away

I must be, I must be in Oregon.


Ah, my baby loves me so

Outside we never go

We play Scrabble by the fire

Make love 'til we expire

I must, I must be in Oregon.


There's rain down in the alleys

Rain down in the street

It was raining when we parted

It'll rain next time we meet

And I must, I must be in Oregon.

I know I must be, I must be in Oregon.
