I had a hard day down, in L.A.
I remember headed down
to Santa Monica Bay Took
a wrong turn and ended up in Phoenix,
Arizona And I didn't really know
what to say
So I said Hey Man
Look at these new shoes
I got the seventies on my radio
I got a gold and pink Impala
That's jacked up in the back
If we don't hurry we'll be late for the show
And it was easy to see
We were just tryin' to get free
And between you and me
always wanted to say Hey Man
I wish you were here
It was a cold day down in Chicago, Illinois
I said I can't remember feelin' so low that
I know
I think I'm too well dressed to be on
this side of town
I got a pocket full of money,
but there's no one else around
Somebody said "Hey Man"
Look at these new shows
I got the seventies on my radio
I've got an accidental case
Of the best of good intentions
A heart full of love
I just got off in the wrong direction
It was a hot night, if you know Memphis, Tennessee
Couldn't wait to get back to L.A.
I took a wrong turn and ended up in Mobile, Alabama
And I didn't really know what to say
So I said Hey Man
Look at the new shoes
They said you've only got yourself to blame
I met a preacher on the way through Jackson, Mississippi
And I don't think I'll ever be the same
