It's raining on the West Coast, snowing in Topeka The weatherman says there's ice below Tennessee There's a flood out in California and a drive way down in Texas And in Maine the fog's so thick that you can't see But the sun shines bright, down in Acapulco There's no snow in old Monterey There's no ice down in Nogales I say oh lord, there's got to be a better way I see a loser in my mirror, got a devil in my brain And the woman I've been loving, she moved on She left blossom in my bedroom and dirty dishes in my sink Guess she didn't like the words to my country song But the sun shines bright, down in Acapulco There's no snow in old Monterey There's no ice down in Nogales I say oh lord, there's got to be a better way But the sun shines bright, down in Acapulco There's no snow in old Monterey There's no ice down in Nogales I say oh lord, there's got to be a better way
