Paul And Storm - Dusty California lyrics

Hey there pretty lady Good to see you after such a long long time We’ve seen a lotta miles since the senior prom But you still look the same I headed west in a denim vest With a guitar in my hand I met a band of desperados And together we rode for fame We rambled around Until we spotted the Pacific Ocean We grew some k**er beards and a mellow sound Near the beach and the desert flowers We made a fan of a record man And he signed us to his label Then a meteor hit us with some cosmic rays And we all gained superpowers We were Dusty California And the Arroyo Harbor Desperados Fightin’ crime and heartbreak From Ojai to Coronado A serenading sunset crew In a laid-back war with evil Dusty California Double-fisted balladeers Derek played the drums And he could shoot lasers out his eyeballs Eddie rocked it steady on the rhythm guitar And traveled back and forth in time Trevor and Ace played the keys and ba** And could combine to form a robot I could fly high like an airplane And control things with my mind We sold a lotta records And we beat up a bunch of bad guys We battled Doctor Z above the Hollywood Sign After headlining at the Greek We mopped the floor with Commander War And her Sunset Strip Assa**ins Eddie moved to Malibu and Ace dated Cher And we rode up the charts for weeks We were Dusty California Superhuman team of champions Layin’ it down so easy From Pasadena to Laurel Canyon Every night we made our stand Against crime and polyester Dusty California Caballeros heroicos We were really cleanin’ up the town Then disco came a-dancin’ in Our record sales crashed down I guess the good guys don’t always win We walked away Broke and broken-hearted Half of the guys hooked up with other bands Half joined the Super Friends And me, at night, I sit awake and fight With the demons of faded glory But on better days instead of mopin’ I put on those boots again Dusty California And his Good Time Palominos Every second Tuesday At the Laughing Brave Casino Crankin’ out those worn-out tunes From a time when we used to matter Dusty California May the legend never die Dusty California Watch me ridin’ across the sky Dusty California Baby, smile and wave “bye-bye”
