Ten Thousand Cities (lyrics)
One evening, I walked with her
I talked with her in the moonlight
I thought she was such a dirty flirt
Big black lashes -- and a tight mini skirt
Penny Lane won't tell you no lies
But she'll sell you swampland in Telluride
She kisses everybody with her ruby red lips
Finds a new love with every new hit.
...............................................................
{CHORUS}
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band
Ten thousand cities -- across the land
We say what we want -- do what we can
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band.
..................................................
Penny shows up like the moon in the sky
Hangin' in the background -- passin' the time
Long leather boots hug her legs so tight
Rebel women dancin' - dancin' into the night.
...............................................................
{CHORUS}
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band
Ten thousand cities -- across the land
We say what we want -- do what we can
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band.
.........................................................
Well It's been six weeks since she went away
With two bandmates in a Chevrolet
Lookin' back at me as she drove away
Tossed a letter & a six-pack back my way.
.......................................................
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band
Ten thousand cities -- across the land
We say what we want -- do what we can
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band.
(Guitar Solo)
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band
Ten thousand cities -- across the land
We say what we want -- do what we can
Freedom in a rock 'n roll band.

Hey sup VonAmp, Marc here again. I have to say I can't get this song out of my head. It's truly an amazing composition that you guys have made. I hope that you guys will achieve your goals that you are pursuing and continue having freedom as a rock n' roll band!

@WolfpikaNetworks Wow Marc, we can't thank you enough. It's a lot of fun making these characters come alive like Penny Lane (typical groupie)..."Almost Famous" featured a groupie by that name. The Beatles had a song by the same name (but they picked it up from a street name where they hung out.) This explains our character:
"If Penny Lane wont tell you no lies
Ill sell you swampland in Telluride
She kisses everybody with her ruby red lips
Finds a new love with every new hit."
