The sound on BBC 2's Racing from Aintree coming through the door. I go into the TV room for the races. But right now I'm in my library.

Jerry Jeff Walker, L.A. Freeway (written by Guy Clark who does a splendid job on it himself)
Pack up all your dishes.
Make note of all good wishes.
Say goodbye to the landlord for me.
Sons of a bitches always bore me.
Throw out them LA papers
And that moldy box of vanilla wafers.
Adios to all this concrete.
Gonna get me some dirt road back street
Chorus
If I can just get off of that LA freeway
Without getting killed or caught
I'd be down that road in a cloud of smoke
For some land that I ain't bought bought bought
If I'd just get off of that LA freeway
Without getting killed or caught
Here's to you old skinny Dennis
Only one I think I will miss
I can hear that old bass men singing
Sweet and low like a gift you're bringin'
Play it for me just one more time now
Got to give it all we can now
I beleive everything your saying
Just keep on, keep on playing
Chorus
Put the pink slip in the mailbox
Leave the key in the old front door lock
They will find it likely as not
With all the things that we have forgot
Oh my lady now don't you cry, babe
Love's a gift that's truly handmade
We've got something to believe in
Now dontcha' think it's time we're leavin'
