Rosecrans Blvd. (Single Version)

I've passed a lot of exit signs in my time
While drivin' down that long freeway
To San Diego, and point south

But there was a time last summer
When I came down from Manhattan
And though I knew I shouldn't, it was just too hard
And I made my move at Rosecrans Boulevard

Rosecrans Boulevard, stop your calling me
You know I never loved her anyway
I just used her
Over and over

But there were a time when she laugh and I think I loved her
One night on Manhattan Beach I said things that moved too fast to suit her
Then I held her close and dried her tears

Rosecrans Boulevard, who cares what you think
The girl was half crazy, the way she drove her little car down sunset Boulevard
At 3 in the morning doing ninety miles an hour in a thirty mile zone
And blamed me when she got a ticket

But then there was that smile
It was really what made all the airlines go
She was a stewardess, you know
Shot down on a non-combatant mission
And though I pity it
Every time I drive my car past Rosecrans Boulevard
I wonder why I did it
