Going to Chino Lyrics

I'd like to say hello
to all our friends from chino.
to the people of chino, hello.
I'd like to say hello
to all our friends from chino.
to the people of chino, hello.

I know how hard it is, down in chino.
I know how you struggle, just to get by.
I know they got farm fresh eggs, down in chino.
and tract homes, reasonably priced!

I'd like to say hello
to all our friends from chino.
to the people from chino, hello.
I'd like to say hello
to all our friends from chino.
to the people from chino, hello.

convenient access to the 60 freeway.
accredited medical care, down at chino valley hospital.
a unified school system, the likes of which you won't find elsewhere.
and friendly people.

I would like to say hello
to all our friends from chino.
to the people from chino, hello.
I'd just like to say hello
to all our friends from chino.
to the people from chino....hello.

It's come out in other songs that John spent a lot of time in Chino, and that it had hardened him, and a lot violence and drug use went on there. This song appears to be a sarcastic take on the place, purposely contradicting what Chino was really like.

Dude Chino is like a suburban paradise. There is nothing hardening about it. Everything looks like it was built last week.
