Shawn Mullins - California Lyrics



Shawn Mullins - California Lyrics




He was from a small town in Northern Mississippi
She was raised on the Puget Sound, a third generation hippie
Fate would take them to L.A. County and get 'em stuck in a traffic jam
An El Camino and a red Trans Am

Her stereo was blaring Dylan, The Bootleg Sessions
And oh the times they are a-changing, made a pretty good impression
She looked over and caught him smiling under the California setting sun
They fell in love on the 101

California, California
California dreams come true

Well, they got in with the in-crowd and got off on the rock 'n' roll
Cocaine's free and the music's loud backstage at the Hollywood Bowl
They got the house in Topanga Canyon, they partied at The Viper Room
Blending into the neon gloom

California, California
California dreams come true
California, California
California dreams come true

Well, you see them down on the sunset strip
Trying so hard to be so hip
Manhattan Beach to Malibu
It's all about the ocean view
And who you know in Hollywood
It's cutthroat but it's understood
Champagne Kool-Aid drink it down
You're the toast of tinsel town

California, California
California dreams come true
California, California
California dreams come true
