[Verse 1]

Pack up all your dishes

Make a note of all good wishes

Say goodbye to the landlord for me

He was a guy extremely bored


[Verse 2]

And throw out those L.A. papers

Mouldy box of vanilla wafers

And adios to all this concrete

I'm gonna get me some dirt road backstreet


[Chorus]

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway

Without gettin' killed or caught

Down the road in a cloud of smoke

Toward some land that I ain't bought, bought, bought

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway


[Verse 3]

Here's to you, Skinny Dennis

The only one I think I will miss

'Cause I can hear old bass man singin'

Sweet and low, like a gift you're bringin'


[Verse 4]

Oh my lady, don't you cry

Love's a gift that's truly handmade

And we got somethin' we can beliеve in

So now don't you think it's time we'rе leavin'


[Chorus]

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway

Without gettin' killed or caught

Down the road in a cloud of smoke

Toward some land that I ain't bought, bought, bought

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway


[Solo]

(make it pretty [?])


[Chorus]

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway

Without gettin' killed or caught

Down the road in a cloud of smoke

Toward some land that I ain't bought, bought, bought

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway

Get me off of that L.A. freeway
