California - Chuck Berry

California, California

Much has been told me about your beautiful sunshine

Mountains and snow tops, valleys and rich crops

California, home so far from mine

San Francisco, Sacramento

Will I ever go to Los Angeles or San Diego?

To Reading or Fresno

Needles or Borstow, California I have so far to go

Someday I will be in California

And go to places movie stars have been

Hollywood and trolley cars and oranges

And see the palm trees bending in the wind

California, California

Soon I’ll be with you watching your sunset in the evening

Movies and show plays, beaches and free ways

California, from my home I’ll be leaving

California, California

Soon I’ll be with you watching your sunset in the evening

Movies and show plays, beaches and free ways

California, for my home I’m leaving
