Pasadena

Ooh It's such a long, long way to Pasadena
Ooh It's such a long, long way to Pasadena
When the dirt track meets the highway
And there aint no time at all
Just a world movin' forward
On a big black motor crawl
And the drivers in their Chevrolette's
Aint got no time at all
To find no lonely hikers wave
It's when I wanna say
Ooh It's such a long, long way to Pasadena
Ooh just to find some air that's kinda cleaner
Pasadena town is where I'm goin'
While you're day cup feels right
The stage coaching you home
For a Mustang pony car
To muss up City Hall
Now there's a lone freeway
Where the desert used to be
And there's no way that you can hike it
Ooh you see
Ooh It's such a long, long way to Pasadena
Ooh just to find some air that's kinda cleaner
Pasadena town is where I'm goin'
Do,do,do,do,do,do…
Do,do,do,do,do,do…
Pasadena town is where I'm goin'
There aint no other town that I call home
Ooh It's such a long, long way to Pasadena
Ooh yeah yeah
Ooh It's such a long, long way to Pasadena
Ooh yeah yeah
