Never Been To Spain
Three Dog Night
I
(E) A
Well I never been to Spain
E
But I kinda like the music
A
See the ladies are insane there
E
And they sure know how to use it
B7
They don't abuse it
A
Never gonna lose it
E
I can't refuse it....hmmmmm...
II
Well I never been to England
But I kinda like the Beatles
Well I headed for Las Vegas
Only made it out to Needles
Can you feel it, must be real it
Feels so good, feels so good
III
Well I never been to heaven
But I've been to Oklahoma
Well they tell me I was born there
But I really don't remember
In Oklahoma, not Arizona
What does it matter, what does it matter
Solo
Repeat I, III
Solo

| This song is awesome. It's full of those funny connections people make with places they've never visited: Oh, I've never been to Hawaii, but I went a luau once . . . I've never been to Japan, but I really like sushi. It's great. As a personal bonus, I'm from Oklahoma, so I always have a funny connection with it. Comparing it to Heaven, that's great stuff . . . LOL | |

| to me, its a pretty simple message... what does it matter if ive never been there? does that mean i cant appreciate what it has to offer? so what if i've never been to spain or england? i've never been to heaven, either, but i certainly like what i hear about it.... | |

| Three dog night gets played alot on the classic rock stations here in Tampa, Florida. Anyways i think the songs simply about a guy who has never been to any of these places, but still appreciates the stuff those places have to offer, pretty easy to relate to actually. | |

| Since I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma I hear this song on the local classic rock station ALL THE TIME. I figured there would be more comments on this one... Do they not play it heavily in any other states? | |
