Roger Creager - L.A. Freeway lyrics
Pack up all the dishes
Make a note of all good wishes
Say goodbye to the landlord for me
Aw you know he always bored me.
And throw out all those LA papers,
The moldy box of Vanilla Wafers.
Adios to all this concrete
Gonna get me some dirt road back streets.
Now here's to you old Skinny Dennis,
The only one I think I will miss.
I can hear those bass notes ringin'
As sweet and low like a gift your bringin'.
So play it for me one more time now,
You got to give it all you can now.
Well I believe every word you're sayin'
Just to keep on keepin' on, keep on playin'
Well I can just get off of this L.A. freeway
Without getting killed or caught.
Down the road in a cloud of smoke
To some land that, baby, we ain't bought.
If I can just get off this L.A. freeway
Leave the key card in the mailbox
Leave the key in that old front lock
They can find it likely as not
There must be somethin' we have forgot.
Oh, Susanna don't you cry babe
Love's a gift and truly handmade
We got somethin' to believe in
Texas is callin, baby, it's time we were leavin'
Well I can just get off of this L.A. freeway
Without getting killed or caught.
Down the road in a cloud of smoke
To some land that, baby, we ain't bought.
If I can just get off this L.A. freeway.
Without getting killed or caught.
Ain't never gonna catch me.
Goin down to some land we ain't bought.
If I can just get off this L.A. freeway.
Texas is callin', Callin' me back home.
