Going To California

Spent my days with a woman unkind
 Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine.
 Made up my mind to make a new start
 Going to california with an aching in my heart.
 Someone told me theres a girl out there
 With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair.
 Took my chances on a big jet plane
 Never let them tell you that theyre all the same.
 The sea was red and the sky was grey
 Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today.
 The mountains and the canyons started to tremble and shake
 As the children of the sun began to awake.
 Seems that the wrath of the gods
 Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow
 I think I might be sinking.
 Throw me a line if I reach it in time
 Ill meet you up there where the path
 Runs straight and high.
 To find a queen without a king
 They say she plays guitar and cries and sings.
 La la la la
 Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
 Tryin to find a woman whos never, never, never been born.
 Standing on a hill in my mountain of dreams
 Telling myself its not as hard, hard, hard as it seems.
