Kristoffer Manzelli & the Gods of Rock - Keep Your Eyes On The Road

Out in Cali I met a girl while I was there
Nothing too serious but I dug her hair
I asked her to show me around the city
She told me her story, God she looked so pretty
She said she had a thing for guys in a band
Well I was lonely so I took a stand
During the day on the beach she'd steal the sun
But I tell you at night she was alotta fun, she said

"Keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
She was young and free man wild and obscene
And she gave me just what I need, she told me
"Keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
Cruisin' Sunset Cliffs in the middle of the night
And doin' all the things that felt so right

She gave me the shirt off her back
Ya know she never kept a runnin' track
She bought me Marlboro Reds 'cause I was broke
She also taught me how to take a joke
Her buddy'd bring us tequila from across the border
And she turned me onto fish tacos that cost a quarter
When I was down she made me right
She did me every night, singin'

"Keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
She was young and free man wild and obscene
And she gave me just what I need, she told me
"Keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
Cruisin' Sunset Cliffs in the middle of the night
And doin' all the things that felt so right, it felt so right!

I still drink tequila and I'll raise a toast
To the girl on that Southern California coast
Things have changed some in strange ways
Some say I'm in my better days
Still I can't help but drift back in time
To my Southern California life
The more things change the more they remain
Does she cruise down Sunset Cliffs the same?

"Just keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
She was young and free man wild and obscene
And she gave me just what I need, she told me
"Keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
Cruisin' Sunset Cliffs in the middle of the night
And doin' all the things that felt so right
"Just keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
She was young and free man wild and obscene
And she gave me just what I need, she told me
"Keep your eyes on the road
And leave the rest to me"
Cruisin' Sunset Cliffs in the middle of the night
And doin' all the things that felt so right
Just keep your eyes on the road
