Desert Drive

Brian Wilson


Hop in, honey, sit right by my side
I'm gonna take you on a little ride
A desert drive... out where the cactus grow
A desert drive... hey don't you wanna go?
Gotta get crankin' now, goin' on a desert drive

Throw on your sneakers, T-shirt and jeans
Better take your shades in case the rays get mean
A desert drive... we're gonna have some fun
A desert drive... out where the coyotes run
Gotta get crankin' now, goin' on a desert drive

Gotta get crankin' now, gotta get movin' now
Fasten your belt I'm takin' good care of you

(C'mon) Let's get outta town
(C'mon) Before the sun goes down
We'll take the 5 to the 109
We're gonna leave all our troubles behind

Stopped in at Needles for a Mexican bite
Twentynine Palms is where we're stayin' tonight
A desert drive... we're gonna get some thrills
A desert drive... out in the purple hills
Gotta get crankin' now, goin' on a desert drive

Gotta get crankin' now, gotta get movin' now
Fasten your belt I'm takin' good care of you

(C'mon) Let's get outta town
(C'mon) Before the sun goes down
We'll take the 5 to the 109
We're gonna leave all our troubles behind

Destination Caesar's gonna catch Wayne's show
Next stop the Nugget and we'll blow some dough
A desert drive... the hottest spot in the world
A desert drive... won't see no surfer girls

Gotta get crankin' now, goin' on a desert drive
Gotta get groovin' now, goin' on a desert drive
Gotta get crankin' now, goin' on a desert drive
