    Took a walk to the corner store
    Just to buy a loaf of bread and a box of s`mores
    Up pulled a guy in a yellow van
    Shiny gold badge flashing in his hand
    (Chong:)
    He said, alright all you mohuddles down here
    I want you all to hit the floor
    I got one thing to ask you and nothing more
    So answer in English, if you can
    Where were ya born, man
    (Cheech:)
    Huh? Where was I born?
    (Chong:)
    That`s right, I said
    Where were ya born?
    (Cheech:)
    Hey, are you one of those dudes who do horoscopes, man
    Hey, I`m a Cancer with a bad moon rising
    (Chong:)
    Look here Alfago, watch my lips
    Where were ya born?
    (Cheech:)
    I was BORN IN EAST L.A.
    Man, I was BORN IN EAST L.A.
    (Chong:)
    Oh yeah, you were BORN IN EAST L.A.
    Let`s see your green card
    (Cheech:)
    Huh? Green card?
    I`m from East LA
    (Chong:)
    Alright, then who`s President of the United States
    (Cheech:)
    Oh, that`s easy, man
    That guy that used to be on Death Valley Days, John Wayne
    (Chong:)
    Alright, let`s go, come on
    (Cheech:)
    Next thing I know, I`m in a foreign land
    People talkin so fast, I couldn`t understand
    There was nobody there to lend a helping hand
    I was cold, it was dark where is a burger stand
    I want to go back to East LA
    I wish I was back in East LA
    I don`t belong here in downtown T.J.
    Cause I was born in East LA, ole
    I crawled under barbed wire, swam across a stream
    Rode in six different trucks packed like a sardine
    Walked all day in the burning sun
    Now I know what it`s like to be born to run
    Up ahead was the promised land
    Shining like a star just beyond my hand
    All I could see was a golden door
    I looked up, a sign said five billion sold
    And I was back in East LA
    Yes, I was back in East LA
    You know I`m never gonna stray
    Cause I was born in East LA, oh LA
    (adlibs with I’m a low rider rocker in East LA, oh LA)
    EAST LA!!!
