Night Ranger - Growing up in California - Live lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] Born in south california sand To a gypsy mother and a guitar playing man Raised inside the american dream School days - desert parties Had it all so it seemed Yet there was something driving me wild Driving me crazy Deep inside like a knife cutting on me So I said to myself "You got one life sittin' on the shelf Get out" [Chorus 1] Growing up in california Growing up in california Got the sun, got the beach And it's always calling me, oh yeah [Verse 2] Headed north san francisco bay There was music all night And rock and roll every day I found myself on a funky band Led by a family stone horn playing man Still there was something pulling hard Driving me crazy Needed more Too much music inside of me So with my friends we took a stand Started up our own rockin' band, oh yeah [Chorus 2] Growing up in california Growing up in california Golden gate redwood trees And they're always calling me, oh yeah [Brigde] Sunset boulevard rainbow bar and grill Lots of gold records I still love it here Pacific coast highway Filmore where the music lives Wine country the most beautiful place I know Sierra mountains, southern beaches Inland cities of rock and roll [Chorus 1] Growing up in california Growing up in california Got the sun, got the beach And it's always calling me, oh yeah, oh yeah [Chorus 2] Growing up in california Growing up in california Golden gate redwood trees And they're always calling me, oh yeah
