I was born in the Hollywood part of town

School teacher sure knew how to bring me down

While the clean-cut kids washed away their sorrows with beer

Well I knew I wouldn't find no miracles here

It's a bad town for rock 'n' roll



If you got a car and if you got the gas

Brother don't you wait any longer

I know how to stear the wheel and how to close a deal

Right now I need something stronger



Don't see me using the fast lane

I don't travel by high speed

I'm trying to get away

Before I stay the same

Don't wanna stay the same



Take the road as it comes 'cause it comes so slow

Take all of the love you have abandoned

Time makes your goods look damaged, look upon it as an advantage

'cause it might be the only companion



Don't see me using the fast lane

I don't travel by high speed

I'm trying to get away

Before I stay the same

Don't wanna stay the same



There are five rules of how to be a cruiser

Five rules of how to be a highway man



Number one

You travel alone



Number two

Never use the fast line

Never travel by high speed



Number three

Take some tapes along the way 

Of your favorite music and your favorite bands



Number four

Take the road as it comes 'cause it comes so slow

Take the road as it comes 'cause it comes so slow



Five

Get out of town!

Get out of town!

Get out of town!

Get out of town!



Get out of town! 'cause it's a fucked up town!

Get out of town! 'cause it's a fucked up town!



Somebody pushed you now your mind is gone!

Somebody pushed you now your mind is gone!

Everywhere is the same!

Everywhere is the same!

Everywhere is the same!

Everywhere is the same!

Get out of town

Get out of town
