Elvis Presley Blvd.
It's dirt road through the country side
I'll put the asphalt down and pave it right
Going south of Dallas, Texas
Hitched a ride with a psycho in a Lexus
I listened to the blues on my way
What the hell else is gonna get you through the day
I ain't gonna worry about a thing
Pick up a guitar and learn to sing
Going north of New York City
Don't turn back when they say oh what a pity
I sang out the blues on my way
What the hell else will pay for your food today
I'm telling you, you won't get away
Your demons follow you
I'm not telling you what you can't say
Your addictions follow you
Got to head to the jailhouse at sundown
I got a real hot gig a-cookin' dowtown
Oh baby you know there's so many ways
How does it feel to be up for twenty-four days
I lived through the blues on my way
Emerged a new man in every way
On Elvis Presley Boulevard it's true
Black clouds hang over you
I'm not making you do what you can't do
Your sins will follow you
Can't say growing up wasn't hard
Coming from North Long Beach to Hollywood Blvd
Sickness turned its back on me
I was awake, I began to see
I let my streets set me free
They reveal the truth behind what I'll be
I'll put the asphalt down and pave it right
Going south of Dallas, Texas
Hitched a ride with a psycho in a Lexus
I listened to the blues on my way
What the hell else is gonna get you through the day
I ain't gonna worry about a thing
Pick up a guitar and learn to sing
Going north of New York City
Don't turn back when they say oh what a pity
I sang out the blues on my way
What the hell else will pay for your food today
I'm telling you, you won't get away
Your demons follow you
I'm not telling you what you can't say
Your addictions follow you
Got to head to the jailhouse at sundown
I got a real hot gig a-cookin' dowtown
Oh baby you know there's so many ways
How does it feel to be up for twenty-four days
I lived through the blues on my way
Emerged a new man in every way
On Elvis Presley Boulevard it's true
Black clouds hang over you
I'm not making you do what you can't do
Your sins will follow you
Can't say growing up wasn't hard
Coming from North Long Beach to Hollywood Blvd
Sickness turned its back on me
I was awake, I began to see
I let my streets set me free
They reveal the truth behind what I'll be
