Duo-piano intro.

Verse 1:
There’s a road I’d like to tell you 'bout,
Lives in my hometown.
Lake Shore Drive the road is called,
And it’ll take you up or down.
From Rat's on up to riches,{1}
Fifteen minutes you can fly.
Pretty blue lights along the way{2},
Help you ride on by.
And the blue light’s shinin' with a heavenly grace,
Help you ride on by.

Chorus:
And there ain’t no road just like it,
Anywhere I’ve found.
Runnin' south on Lake Shore Drive,
Headin' into town.
Just slippin' on by on LSD,{3}
Friday night trouble bound.

Short instrumental break featuring pianos.

Verse 2:
It starts up north from Hollywood{4},
Water on the drivin' side.
Concrete mountains rearin' up{5},
Throwin' shadows just about five.
Sometimes you can smell the green,
If your mind is feelin' fine.
There ain’t no finer place to be,
Then runnin' Lake Shore Drive.
And there’s no piece of mind or place, you see,
Ridin' on Lake Shore Drive.

Verse 3:
It’s Friday night and you’re lookin' clean.
Too early to start the rounds.
A ten-minute drive from the Gold Coast back{6},
Makes you sure you’re pleasure bound.
And it’s four o’clock in the mornin',
And all the people have gone away.
Just you and your mind and Lake Shore Drive,
Tomorrow is another day.
And the sun shines fine in the mornin' time.
Tomorrow is another day.

Short instrumental break featuring pianos.
(whoo!)

Chorus, slightly altered:
And there ain’t no road just like it,
Anywhere I’ve found.
Runnin' south on Lake Shore Drive,
Headin' into town.
Just snakin'{7} on by on LSD,
Friday night trouble bound.

Pianos to end.
