Sitting in a park in Paris, France
Reading the news. and it sure looks bad
They don't give peace a chance
It was just a dream some of us had
Still a lot of lands to see
But I wouldn't want to stay here
It's too old and cold and settled in it's ways here
Ah, but California
California, I'm coming home
I'm going to go see the folks I dig
I'll even kiss the 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 omelettes and stews
And I met have stayed on with him there
But my heart cried out for you, California
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'r walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
Just gives you the blues
Just gives you the blues
So I bought me a ticket,
I caught a plane to Spain
Went to a party down a red dirt road
There were lot's 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'r walking
And the streets are full of strangers
All the news of home you read
More about the war and the bloody changes
Oh, will you take me as I am?
Will you take me as I am?
Will you, will you take me as I am? Take me as I am?
