Intro: E Bm E Bm
E Bm E
This town's got to shake down to its roots
E
I don't know if that's the sands
Bm
Or the tropical fruits
E E7
I don't believe all the things I see
A Bb
But I'm still betting on you and me
Chorus:
E Bm E
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
E Bm E
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
I met a girl who looked like a movie star
She was going for a ride
And I don't mean in a car
Had a brain about the size of a frozen pea
And on a scale of one to ten she was twenty three
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
A big fat man's gonna make me a king
He's got a see-through tan
And a pinky diamond ring
Slicked-back hair, shirt to his thigh
Import silk slave labour dyed
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta go get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
A tattoo is a popular acoutrement
They come red and in blues
And it says anything you want
Some folks say "you're gonna regret"
But the some days haven't come around just yet
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta go get out of LA
Hey baby ...
And the boy whores
Sell their souls on the boulevard
And that's a shirt-free store
Where they don't take credit cards
From the hills to the chills
Its a quick fall down
It's a great big city
It's a real small town
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta go get out of LA
Hey hey baby, we gotta go get out ...
Hey baby, we gotta get out of LA
