 It was that life  changing song on that white  cassette
 A melody  I'll never  forget
 Get me  a triple triple and a  BCD
 The good  times will be  on me
Throw  in the shifter  1, 2  and 3
Find  me the queen  of Portland  street
Out  in the five  runner out  in the  rain
Me  and G  chasing  hurricanes
  (repeat the intro riff)
Come  on Lanny cut me  a deal
I  work so hard and I never  steal
 And the  827 punched out  my lights
 Down  at Rudy's last Saturday  night
I  know this road like the back  of my hand
 From the donair  temple to the L-town sand
 Me and G  will meet you down in  the dunes
 With the moon  and the tunes yeah we'll be  there soon
 (just listen to the song a bunch to get the timing and strumming for this)
