When the lights go down in the California town
People are in for the evening
I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar
My heartbeat in time with my breathing
Driving over Kanan
Singing to my soul
There's people out there
Turning music into gold
Ah, my buddy Jim Ba**
He's a-working pumping gas
And he makes two-fifty for an hour
He's got rhythm in his hands
As he's tapping on the cans
Sings rock and roll in the shower
Driving over Kanan
Singing to his soul
There's people out there
Turning music into gold
Ah, California girls are the greatest in the world
Each one a song in the making
Singing right to me, I can hear the melody
Story is there for the taking
Driving over Kanan
Singing to his soul
There's people out there
Turning music into gold
(Ooh)
Driving over Kanan
Singing to my soul
There's people out there
Turning music into gold
When the lights go down in the California town
People are in for the evening
I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar
My heartbeat in time with my breathing
Driving over Kanan
Singing to my soul
There's people out there
Turning music into gold
Flying over Kanan, singing to my soul
People out there turning music into gold
People out there turning music into gold
People out there turning music into gold
(Ooh, yeah)
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
(Yes, babe)
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
Rappin' on the radio
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
Slippin' down the back road
People out there turning music into gold (into gold)
