| California, California
|
| Much has been told me about your beautiful sunshine
|
| Mountains and snow tops, valleys and rich crops
|
| California, home so far from mine
|
| San Francisco, Sacramento
|
| Will I ever go to Los Angeles or San Diego?
|
| To Reading or Fresno
|
| Needles or Borstow, California I have so far to go
|
| Someday I will be in California
|
| And go to places movie stars have been
|
| Hollywood and trolley cars and oranges
|
| And see the palm trees bending in the wind
|
| California, California
|
| Soon I’ll be with you watching your sunset in the evening
|
| Movies and show plays, beaches and free ways
|
| California, from my home I’ll be leaving
|
| California, California
|
| Soon I’ll be with you watching your sunset in the evening

| California, for my home I’m leaving |
