David Arthur Brown - Teenage Summer Days lyrics
[David Arthur Brown - Teenage Summer Days lyrics]
Back in nineteen eighty three
All the cholos on the corner
Hid their pistols in the trees
El Funny Clown lived off of Sunset
On a street called Benton Way
There were blood satins on the sidewalk
But the rain washed them away
On the mean streets of LA
All those teenage summer days
On the mean streets of LA
We took the bus way down to Venice
Went bodysurfing in the waves
Staring out at the horizon
On those teenage summer days
On the mean streets of LA
On the mean streets of LA
My daddy was a trucker
Hauling freight 12 hours a day
Sometimes he’d take me down to Vernon
Or the shipyards in South Bay
On the mean streets of LA
On those teenage summer days
On the mean streets of LA
