Song lyrics:
SITTIN’ IN A PARK
IN PARIS, FRANCE
READIN’ 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-A COMIN’ HOME
I’M GONNA SEE THE FOLKS I DIG
I’LL EVEN KISS A SUNSET PIG
CALIFORNIA
I’M-A COMIN’ 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 MIGHT HAVE
STAYED ON WITH HIM THERE
BUT MY HEART CRIED OUT
FOR YOU... CALIFORNIA
OH... CALIFORNIA
I’M-A COMIN’ HOME
OH, MAKE ME FEEL GOOD
ROCK AND ROLL BAND
I’M YOUR BIGGEST FAN
CALIFORNIA
I’M-A COMIN’ HOME...
OH, IT GETS SO LONELY
WHEN YOU’RE WALKIN’
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 LOTS OF
PRETTY PEOPLE THERE
READIN’ ROLLING STONE
READIN’ VOGUE
THEY SAID, HOW LONG
CAN YOU HANG AROUND
I SAID A WEEK, MAYBE TWO
JUST UNTIL
MY SKIN TURNS BROWN
THEN I’M GOIN’ HOME
TO CALIFORNIA
CALIFORNIA, I’M-A COMIN’ HOME
OH... WILL YOU TAKE ME AS I AM
STRUNG OUT ON ANOTHER MAN
CALIFORNIA
I’M-A COMIN’ HOME...
OH, IT GETS SO LONELY
WHEN YOU’RE WALKIN’
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...
HMM-MMM, MMM
TAKE ME AS I AM...
WILL YOU TAKE ME AS I AM
