Don Was - Queen of California lyrics

[Verse 1] Goodbye cold, goodbye rain Goodbye sorrow, and goodbye shame I'm headed out west with my headphones on Boarded a flight with a song in the back of my soul And no one knows [Chorus] I just found out her ghost left town The queen of California is stepping down, down [Verse 2] Hello beauty, hello strange Hello wonder, what's your name? Looking for the Sun that Neil Young hung After the Gold Rush of 1971 [Chorus] I just found out her ghost left town The queen of California is stepping down, down [Electric country blues guitar bridge] [Verse 3] If you see her, say hello Just don't tell me, I told you so Joni wrote "Blue" in her house by the sea I've got to believe there's another color waiting on me To set me free [Chorus] I just found out her ghost left town The queen of California is stepping down, down [Instrumental outro]
