You don't like my story. You don't like my song.
I guess I never did belong.
Adios amigo. I say, so long.
I'm going to Slab City.
You told me that we're insane,
the angel and devil in my brain.
There's only one place that frees us -
East Jesus.
I don't think I can stay afloat.
I need somewhere remote -
maybe, Slab City.
What's left of my life,
it ain't pretty.
I'll be on my way
to Slab City.
The sun's so hot, I'm gonna drop,
but salvation's coming. I won't stop
'til I get to the mountain top
in Slab City.
