CALIFORNIA

 CALIFORNIA

WE STARTED SOUTH ALONG THE SALTON SEA
LEFT IT BEHIND TO CAMP AT JOSHUA TREE
BROKE DOWN IN BARSTOW WHERE THE AIR WAS ON FIRE
WAITED ALL DAY WHILE THEY WORKED ON OUR TIRE

CALIFORNIA HERE WE COME BEEN DREAMIN OF YOU EVER SINCE WE WERE YOUNG
CALIFORNIA GOLDEN SAND, WE'LL MEET SOME GROOVY GIRLS AT DISNEYLAND

THIS STATE'S SO FULL OF PLACES WE WANT TO GO
WE'LL HAVE SOME OYSTERS UP IN CANNERY ROW
WE'LL HEAD ON DOWN TO SAN DIEGO ZOO
AND THEN WE'LL LEARN TO SURF AT MALIBU

CALIFORNIA HERE WE ARE LET'S HIT THE BEACH AND THEN WE'LL FIND A BAR
CALIFORNIA LIFE IS GOOD WE'LL MEET SOME MOVIE STARS IN HOLLYWOOD

WELL SAN FRANCISCO WAS ENGULFED IN A FOG
WE CHOKED OUR LUNGS OUT IN THE L.A. SMOG
WE MISSED OUR EXIT AND WE HAD TO WAIT
GOT STUCK IN GRIDLOCK ON THE INTERSTATE

CALIFORNIA WE'VE BEEN CONNED NOT QUITE THE SAME SINCE GIDGET'S GONE
CALIFORNIA GOT TO GO WE'LL TRY OUR LUCK DOWN SOUTH IN MEXICO

BACK TO HIT THE ROAD MACK
