Lyrics California

Sitting in a park in Paris France

Reading the news and it sure looks bad

They won't give peace a chance

That was just a dream some of us had

Still a lot of lands to see but I wouldn't wanna stay here

It's too old and cold and settled in its ways here

Oh but California

California I'm coming home

I'm gonna see the folks I dig

I'll even kiss a sunset pig

California I'm coming home

I met a redneck on a Grecian isle who did the goat dance very well

He gave me back my smile but he kept my camera to sell

Oh the rogue

The red, red rogue

He cooked good omelets and stews

And I might have stayed on with him there but my heart cried out for you

California

Oh California I'm coming home

Oh make me feel good rock and roll band

I'm your biggest fan

California I'm coming home

Oh it gets so lonely when you're walking and the streets are full of strangers

All the news of home you read just give you the blues

Just give you the blues

So I bought me a ticket

I got on a plane to Spain

Went to a party down a red dirt road

There were lots of pretty people there reading Rolling Stone

Reading Vogue

They said How long can you hang around

I said a week maybe two

Just until my skin turns brown

Then I'm going home to California

California I'm coming home

Will you take me as I am

Strung out on another man

California I'm coming home

Oh it gets so lonely when you're walking and the streets are full of strangers

All the news of home you read are about the war and the bloody changes

Will you take me as I am

Will you

Will you take me as I am

Mmh

Take me as I am

Will you take me as I am
