Testo The Strip

A piece of paper got us out to L.A. It was a visa invitation to play The Bluesbreakers gettin' on that plane Leavin' England in the pourin' rain January sun is hot, lucky to be on the spot Come on down and see The strip was up on Sunset Boulevard We're at the Whiskey and we're playin' hard After closing time the night was young Plenty goin' on to have some fun Pretty women everywhere makin' out without a care Come on down with me Freedom and love on The Strip Freedom and love cool and hip Freedom and love was our goal Searchin' for peace in the soul Disillusionment, the passage of time Saturated now with violence and crime We were so innocent to think it would last All we thought about was having a blast Everybody had a cause, rememberin' the way it was Come on down with me We had the Whiskey and the Roxy club We had Gazzari's and the English pub We had the neon and the cruisin' cars We had the record stores and all night bars Times we'll never see again, I think about it now and then Come on down with me
