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
