Susan left for LA
She took the midnight train
She's gone to California
She's gone to gain her fame
But when the ground's start to shakin'
I'm gonna meet her on her way home
On the coast of Colorado
When California's gone
Hey California, take care of my little friend
Hey California try and hang on while she's there
Hey Colorado someday you may be
Snowcapped mountains by the sparklin' sea
Two bright moons shining down on my lady and me
Three long years since she's been gone
She writes me everyday
She tells me that the ground it shakes
But there's not much attention paid
I hope she makes a bed of me
Gonna make love when it's done
On the coast of Colorado
When California's gone
