lyrics

You and me we're as thick as thieves

from the bottom of the bottle to these oakland city streets

and there's no lookin' back no there's no tomorrow

just you standin' beside me fillin' our hearts so hollow

so let's sail together right off the map

when we leave this town there ain't no comin' back

I remember when we stormed the south

some left hearts there and some fell out

singin'... (chorus)

when we take up our arms again

aim for the stars sugar, shoot to win

get back in the van just one more time

drive along that yellow line

sing it (chorus)

when we drive along that yellow line

pass the whiskey kill some time

we'll be drunk when we hit the show

finish your beer Dillie, it's time to go

(chorus)
