DRIVE TIME © 2005 Jay Spears Music ASCAP

Woke up in Encino; gotta get to Chino. (No sweat!)
Take the 101 to the 134 to the 210 down to the 60. (Say what?) (O.K.)

Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake
Tromp on the gas, lean on the horn. Tromp on the brake, lean on the horn.
Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake

Altadena Pasadena West Covina Upland (Heads up!)

Mark's in Culver City, but Johnny lives in Whittier. (Oh, boy.)
You can get to Whittier from Culver City but the 10 through downtown won't be pretty. (Say what?) (O.K.)

Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake
Tromp on the gas, lean on the horn. Tromp on the brake, lean on the horn.
Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake

Hollywood Inglewood Maywood Lynwood (Heads up!)

The 10 is the Santa Monica Freeway and it's also the San Bernardino Freeway.
The 110 is the Harbor Freeway and it's also the Pasadena Freeway.

The 405 is the San Diego Freeway but it barely goes past Santa Ana.
The 5 is the Santa Ana Freeway but it goes all the way to San Diego. (Say what?)

Marina Manhattan Hermosa Redondo (Heads up!)

Gotta get from WeHo to Mission Viejo. (No sweat!)
Take the 405 straight shot, straight shot. (Say what?) (O.K.)
Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake
But wait! Big car crash in Carson! (SigAlert! Oh Hell! No sweat!)
Take the 405 to the 105 to the 605 to the 405. (Say what?) (O.K.)

Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake
Tromp on the gas, lean on the horn. Tromp on the brake, lean on the horn.
Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake

Monrovia Ontario Fontana San Bernardino

Desperate chill runs down my spine -- unleaded regular $5.69 (.9)

Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake; Tromp on the gas, tromp on the brake....
