Verse:
C majorC                      C#dimC#dim    G7G7
Saturday night in Toledo Ohio is like being nowhere at all
              C majorC     A minorAm
All through the day how the hours rush by
  D7D7           G7G7    F#7F#7  G7G7
You sit in the park and you watch the grass die
    C majorC
Ah but after the sunset the dusk and the twilight
        C#dimC#dim      G7G7
When shadows of night start to fall
               C majorC      A minorAm
They roll back the sidewalks precisely at ten
F#7F#7              B7B7    Bb7-B7
Fnd people who live there are not seen a-gain
   C majorC     C7C7      FF
Just two lonely truckers from Kearny Nebraska
   G7G7          C majorC         C7C7
Fnd a salesman from places unknown -es unknown
  FF    CdimCdim    C majorC    A7A7
All huddled together in downtown Toledo
  D7D7       G7G7    C majorC
To spend their big night all alone
  C majorC
You ask how I know of Toledo Ohio
        C#dimC#dim      G7G7
Well I spent a week there one day
               C majorC      A minorAm
They've got entertainment to dazzle your eyes
  D7D7         G7G7    F#7F#7 G7G7
Go visit the bakery and watch the buns rise
    C majorC                        F#dimF#dim    G7G7
Ah but let's not forget the folks of Toledo unselfo shly gave us the scale

spoken:
                   C majorC      A minorAm
“No springs honest weight” that's the promise they made
  D7D7            G7G7    F#7F#7  G7G7
So smile and be thankful next time you get weighed
  C majorC      C7C7     FF
And live and let live let this be our motto
G7G7              C majorC        C7C7
Let's let the sleeping dogs lie -ping dogs lie
   FF      CdimCdim   C majorC   A minorAm
And here's to the dogs of Toledo Ohio
D7D7    G7G7      C majorC  G7G7 C majorC
Ladies we bid you good bye
