lyrics

Driving All The Way To L.A.
Music & Lyrics: Marcus Lazarus

Cherry was a dancer
Joey was a chancer
Driving all the way to L.A.
They were high on their emotions
Drinking different potions
And living life from day to day

Beg, steal or borrow
Forget about tomorrow
Feel as if they’re losing their mind
Juke Joint renegades
Honky Tonk escapades
Leaving all their troubles behind

They wanted to rock
They wanted to roll
They wanted to live and die and free their soul
Nobody would get in their way
Driving all the way to L.A.

Joey squeezed the trigger
The other guy was bigger
Ran straight out of there double time
Cherry took the money
Changed her name to Honey
Said it was victimless crime

The lady was a biker
Honey didn’t like her
Wiped her out and stole her beret
The roadblock wasn’t easy
The cops were kinda sleazy
But Honey wasted them anyway

They wanted to rock
They wanted to roll
They wanted to live and die and free their soul
Nobody would get in their way
Driving all the way to L.A.

See the light
The stars are shining bright
The gate is open wide
Just have to step inside
Ease the pain
You will be saved again
You will be born again
You will be glorious

They wanted to rock
They wanted to roll
They wanted to live and die and free their soul
Nobody would get in their way
Driving all the way to L.A.
