Laurel Canyon

I love to great the day, love my hideaway in Laurel Canyon
I don't keep track of time, living on the dole in Laurel Canyon
Standing here trying to get a ride, I got my baby by my side
Some say we are the pride of Laurel Canyon
Shades of Camelot, giving all I've got to Laurel Canyon
John Paul Jones and Lizzy trying to keep it in, Laurel Canyon
Up and down here take your pick, light another candlestick
I don't think I could ever keep Laurel Canyon
Looking out my door I can see that story, Laurel Canyon
Staying just above with the one I love, Laurel Canyon
Our good friend Felicity, she married old man Socrates
Standing under ‘neath the trees of Laurel Canyon, strange companion
I've got a dog named Gwinn wondering somewhere in Laurel Canyon
She goes out to play, seems to know her way through Laurel Canyon
Saw miss kitty chase a mouse living in a wooden house
I'm sowing flowers out on my blouse, Laurel Canyon, strange companion
Look out I'm gonna shout about good old Laurel Canyon
Staying just above with the one I love, Laurel Canyon
Good old, good old Laurel Canyon...
