Alex Oliva - Slab City Lyrics

I took a greyhound bus to palm springs, I said f*ck LA traffic and f*ck Silverlake flea rings
Took me damn near three hours, no ac, I was there for coachella but that shit was f*cking boring
We stopped at a gas station, struck up a conversation with a hippie driving a tie dye rv
I asked her destination, she said it's real pretty,
I'm on my way to a place called slab city

I wanna be free, I wanna hold stars, ride with me, slab city, hold out my heart
I wanna just be, have my own yard, my city, slab city, do what i want

So I asked for a ride, she said ok sure
There's 9 people riding but we got room for one more
I looked inside and I saw those passengers chillin
They didn't need black mirrors for time killing
I hopped inside, sure there wasn't a seat
I laid down on the ground, they gave me something to eat
I asked for water they said naw we got miller lite,
I said is it cold, they said does it look like we got ice??

I wanna be free, I wanna hold stars, ride with me, slab city, hold out my heart
I wanna just be, have my own yard, my city, slab city, do what i want
I wanna be free, I wanna hold stars, ride with me, slab city, hold out my heart
I wanna just be, have my own yard, my city, slab city, do what i want

I wanna do something wrong
The universe in my palms
I wanna find peace in loss
I gotta find peace in loss

My city slab city, hold out my heart
Ride with me slab, wherever you are
