get on the five (kaye/heidl)

quit my job
got my last paycheck
said goodbye to my compañeros
everything I own is in the back seat of my car
my girlfriend left me to marry some guy
she says
“he’s got mucho dinero”
now I got no reason to stay here in L.A. for

gonna get on the 5
get on the 5
and drive
gonna get on the 5
get on the 5
and I won’t stop till I see those vegas lights

chorus
time for the ride of my life
lord it feels so good
ride for the time of my life
always knew that I should
sometimes these things we all must do
so we can get where we’re goin to
just drive

made a stop in bakersfield
for some gas and some cigarettes
I wish I had a dollar for every big rig that whistled on by
headed on up the on ramp
two girls were thumbin’ there
I pulled over and they jumped on in the car

then she said get on the 5
get on the 5
and drive
just get on the 5
get on the 5
and don’t you stop till I see those vegas lights

chorus

billy and regina
two dancers from north hollywood
and by the looks of them
I’m sure they dance real fine
billy knew all the dirty jokes n stories
she had us all laughin’ and feelin’ good
I let billy drive
regina pulled me in the back
she drove me all the way to the nevada border line
