Lyrics

Pack up all your dishes
Make note of all good wishes
Say goodbye to the landlord for me
Sons of bitches always boreme
Throw out those l a papers
Moldy box of vanilla wafers
Adios to all this concrete
Gonna get me some dirt road back street

[Chorus]
If I can just get off of that l.a. freeway
Without getting killed or caught
Down that road in a cloud of smoke
For some land that I ain't bought bought bought
If I can just get off of that l.a. freeway

Here's to you old skinny dennis
The only one I think I will miss
I can hear your bassman singin'
Sweet and low like a gift your bringin'
Play it for me one more time now
Got to give it all we can now
I beleive every word your saying
Just keep on keep on playing

Chorus

Put the pink slip in the mailbox
Leave the key in the old front door lock
They will find it likely as not
With all the things that we have forgot
Oh my lady now don't you cry, hey
Love's a gift that's truly handmade
We've got something to believe in
Now don't you think it's time we're leavin'

Chorus
