Lyrics Posted With Permission Of The Lost Tapes. We Got The Keys Got The Beer
Got Anywhere That We Wanna Go We Know
That It's Only A Matter Of Time Until We All Die
So Let's Make It Count Yo
You're Gonna Have All The Fun In The Sun
But You Want It More Than You Know. Let's Take A Ride Till The Dawn Goes Down
and It Turns To Night We Never Gotta Stop
And Everyday That We Say We're Living Our Own Way
We're Living Our Own Way. And It's Alright
Never Have To Turn Off The Lights
we'll Just Find Our Own Way
and Drive Along This Open Highway
You Want To Find A Reason Why
Why Ask Why? You Got It Right. You Gonna Take It Away
But You Got To Stay With Me Now
Never Know What You're Doing
What You're Saying But You Wanna Play That Game. Never Looking Back Never Gonna Ask
Which Way To Go
And You Can't Give Me One Minute Of Peace
I Need To Think... I Wanna Drive All Night With You By My Side
and I'd Give It All Away
For One Fucking Sunny Day
And You Gonna Let Me Come Along On This Date
We're Gonna Ride Yeah We Know How To Have Fun
And We're Gonna Blaze The Sun Away
So Let's Blaze All Day Till We Never Find An End
And I'll Say That It's Okay It's Okay.
