lyrics

Crosstown traffic
Flying down the coast of dreams
Some of us had different names from Nevada to New Orleans

Ch.:
San Francisco was quite a trip
We went from high to low, we almost died but we loved it
We lost our Bag Man but we gained a Fence,
And it’s true what they say about Chinatown heavies
Now some of us have photos on the post office wall
I guess I mean some more of us than there were before
Suffice it to say there’s no such thing as
An easy score

We had a drop to make
We were hopping from state to state
We’d cut our losses and licked our wounds and
Learned from our mistakes

Things didn’t quite go as planned
But we got what we wanted and decamped
Can’t un-ring a bell but you sure as hell can
Bury your treasure in the sand

Ch.:
San Francisco was quite a trip
We went from high to low, we almost died but we loved it
We lost our Bag Man but we gained a Fence,
And it’s true what they say about Chinatown heavies
Now some of us have photos on the post office wall
I guess I mean some more of us than there were before
Suffice it to say there’s no such thing as
An easy score

And now it’s my high time
O Anaheim!
Let the years roll by
Just watching the sun set, then watching it rise

Ain’t trying to preach
But I ain’t going out like Uncle Pete
Lived his whole by the highway, never made it to the beach

Ch.:
San Francisco was quite a trip
We went from high to low, we almost died but we loved it
We lost our Bag Man but we gained a Fence,
And it’s true what they say about Chinatown heavies
Now some of us have photos on the post office wall
I guess I mean some more of us than there were before
Suffice it to say there’s no such thing as
An easy score

The Deadeyes image

The Deadeyes Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The Deadeyes rose from the ashes of Philadelphia’s indie soul punk band Grubstake. This violin driven 3-piece effortlessly traverses the musical genres of punk and roots-rock with tinges of soul, drawing comparisons to bands such as Yo La Tengo, The Velvet Underground, and Replacements. ... more
