I took my few belongings
|
We headed out to Pirate's Cove
|
In my buddy's old Defender
|
We ran until the gas got low
|
|
We were flying close to heaven
|
Everything was starting to glow
|
Drivin' into sunset
|
Rollin' cause we had to roll
|
|
I think he was a preacher
|
But lord I can't recall his name
|
He was running out of wind
|
But talking to me just the same
|
|
He said five 'll get you ten
|
But boy you've got to stay in the game
|
Yeah you got to let it ride
|
Or you've only got yourself to blame
|
|
We lost a wheel in Santa Cruz
|
So we partied with some motel maids
|
My friend said I don't like mine
|
So what do you say we trade
|
|
She was a part of my heart
|
Now she's just a line in my face
|
They let us go with a warning
|
Said we'd book you, but we don't have a case
|
|
My friend said take her with you
|
To leave her here would be a crime
|
But let's get outta Santa Cruz
|
All I got is a Canadian dime
|
|
I got a friend in Mendocino
|
And it's gettin' close to harvest time
|
And she was kinda cute
|
If a little past her prime
