L.A. Blues |
I got off the airplane 'long about 7:30 in LA |
What a drag to realize that everything’s so different and so same |
All my California friends are searching for their minds |
And it’s been right there in their heads all the time |
LA blues LA blues you want me to be like you ha ha there ain’t no way |
California Charlie met me at my room when I got in |
We toasted country picking and the help of all our good and mutual friends |
Before the morning came we put a handle on the world |
And decided that we’d give it to the squirrels |
LA blues LA blues you want me to be like you ha ha there ain’t no way |
Soaking up that sunshine and eatin' eggs and bacon over light |
Sleeping through the daytime and contemplatin' sin thru’out the night |
Please hand me my hat and darling give me back my things |
Ole T’s got a bunch of songs to sing |
LA blues LA blues you want me to be like you ha ha there ain’t no way |
I like California and I wouldn’t want to put it down no way |
But I heard what you’re thinking and it ain’t exactly what I want to say |
Someday California I’ll come roarin' back to you |
If you don’t fall in the ocean before I do |
LA blues LA blues you want me to be like you ha ha there ain’t no way |
