Gray Beard Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the timeAnd the feeling is "lay back"Palm trees grow and rents are lowBut you know I keep thinkin' aboutMaking my way back Well I'm New York City born and raisedBut nowadaysI'm lost between two shoresL.A.'s fine, but it ain't homeNew York's homeBut it ain't mine no more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinceThe70s Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I'm driving down Sunset BoulevardSex Pistols on the radio in my carAnd I must be highI just saw Jesus walk by I make a hard left as the sun comes upOver Hollywood vampires pushin' their luckBaby lock your doorYeah we've seen this before And I don't know what you're doing to meBut it sure feels right P.S. - I'm gonna break ranks here and post the song above. My guess is you haven't heard it, thought it might resonate with this group. For me it's about driving in your car listening to a song you like and thinking about good things in your life.

KD in CA Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Let's go down to the Sunset Grill We can watch the working girls go by Watch the "basket people" walk around and mumble And stare out at the auburn sky There's an old man there from the Old World To him, it's all the same Calls all his customers by name Down at the Sunset Grill Down at the Sunset Grill Down at the Sunset Grill Down at the Sunset Grill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 The local rock group down the streetIs trying hard to learn their songThey serenade the weekend squireWho just came out to mow his lawnAnother pleasant valley SundayCharcoal burning everywhereRows of houses that are all the sameAnd no one seems to care.

Gray Beard Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart How the music can free her, whenever it starts And it's magic, if the music is groovy It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie I'll tell you about the magic, and it'll free your soul But it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout rock and roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
