[Verse 1]
Theres a place I know
Where the redwoods blow
Where the Colorado River feeds the sea
If you care to share it with me
There are wide blue skies
In your cloudless eyes
And I think that California is what they see
Will you come to California with me
[Verse 2]
Oh the sun grows warm
In the blue California dome
As it rises from the ocean like a burning tree
Will you come to California with me
And the moon glows pale as a great white whale
As we sail to Chattanooga on the Robert E. Lee
Will you come to California with me
[Verse 3]
Have you seen the Dow Jones
Or the Monument Valley stones
Oh where they buried all the giants after Wounded Knee
Will you come to California with me
All the presidents are smiling in a line
In the hills behind the Hollywood sign
Where it overlooks the Statue of Liberty
Will you come to California with me
[Verse 4]
If I stay here I'll freeze
Will you come to California please
Will you do me this one favor before you leave
And come to California
[Verse 5]
All the dreams you k**ed do you dream them still
Are they there in California wait and see
And come to California with me
And well cruise along broadway in a Model T
When you come to California with me
In a big top hat like John F. Kennedy
When you come to California with me
I'll be brave and you'll be free
When you come to California with me
