LA SOL RE MI x 2
LA SOL RE MI
White houses in neat little rows contrasting against the sky
LA SOL RE MI
Tumbled down black shacks over the tracks children so hungry they could cry
LA SOL RE MI
The chrome the steel the metal dream leaving the teepee to rot
LA SOL RE MI
The escapist young mind left behind saving dimes for community pot
LA SOL RE
You better get straight
MI LA SOL
Better, better get straight
RE MI LA SOL
I mean you better get straight right now
RE MI LA SOL RE MI
Better get it, you better, better get straight babe
LA SOL RE MI
They're crying out for love all the time but they fail to see their
neighbours eyes
LA SOL RE MI
The TV is on 6 o'clock news the channel's in full colored lies
LA SOL RE MI
The company meets, the President speaks he's young but his bones creak
LA SOL RE MI
Young girl dresses for the high school dance and the guy next door is dyin'
for a peek
LA SOL
Get straight
RE MI LA SOL
You better, yeah, you better get straight babe
RE MI LA SOL
Oh did you get what I said, I said to you
RE MI LA
That you, you better, you better get angry
SOL RE MI
You better, you better get straight
SOLO (32 bars)
LA SOL RE MI
They put a bible in the drawer of the motel room and it's crying out to be read
LA SOL RE MI
But it stays right there collecting dust, no one understands what's being said
LA SOL RE MI
Lovers make love in comfy boxes, what will tomorrow bring
LA SOL RE
MI
They've been told that it's wrong but they don't give a damn, soon another
life it will bring
LA SOL
You better get straight baby
RE MI LA SOL
Yeah you, you better get straight baby
RE MI LA SOL
Oh and I think I better get myself to get it babe
RE MI LA SOL
You know what I mean I been bent so very long
RE MI
I wanna fly right, I wanna do it alright
