*Living In A Chick-Fil-A Paradise

Gregg Metcalf

As I drive through the valley where I live with my wife

I look around and discover something missing from my life

I see fast food chains scattered all over the place

But there is only one dish that will put a smile on my face

At 6:30 in the evening I’m feeling hungry again

My wife and my son are acting like crazy men

Their stomachs are growling and causing them pain

We need something to eat before we all go insane

I’m a man who works hard for a few bucks to spend

I will share what I have and sometimes I will lend

A dollar or two hoping to help thee and thine

Or maybe throw a party like its 1999

We’ve spent all of our lives eating in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

We’ve tried burgers once or twice in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

That’s way too much to sacrifice, living in Chick-Fil-A paradise

There’s no need to pay a big price, living in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

Some bigots lashed out in the paper last week
Accusing Truett Cathy of turning the wrong cheek

Now the Mayor of Boston won’t let Cathy play

In His city by bringing in another Chick-Fil-A

Mr. Cathy maintained God created Adam and Eve

Make no mistake it was not Adam and Steve

But I guess it was wrong for him to think it was grand

To be free to express his opinion in this great land

Glorifying God by being a faithful steward of

all that God has given to us with His great love

To have a positive influence on all who come in

Is this really a bad business or is it just a whim?

If you come to visit, you’ll be pleased to no end

You will want to stop by again and again

Fried chicken was meant to be made this way

Come and see how they do it at Chick-Fil-A

Bridge

There’s no corn fungus, no caviar, no escargot, not a single ortolan

Like Robinson Crusoe, you’ll be eating chicken on your lawn

We’ve been eating most of our lives in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

We’re just plain and simple families, living in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

There’s no time for political correctness living in Chick-Fil-A paradise

We aren’t bigots or intolerant, living in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

Jumping in the Buick, driving down the street

Heading to our very favorite place to eat

Think you’ve had chicken that is to die for

You’ve had nothing till you come here and score

We’ve been eating most of our lives in a Chick-Fil-A paradise
We’re just plain and simple families, living in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

There’s no time for political correctness living in Chick-Fil-A paradise

We aren’t bigots or intolerant, living in a Chick-Fil-A paradise

Yeah
