lyrics

We're raisins in the sun
This California fun
Surfing and bumming, it's for me

Pacific Coast, its the land of the most
Let's trade the city for the sea

Riding down the highway, Lord it might be a freeway
It's the right way, it's with you
Sliding by the ocean, two hearts set in motion
One love, one life, be my Golden State Girl

Don't know much about California, I've never had too much sunshine
Don't know much about shucking corn or picking grapes from the vine
All I know is the wind and the rain
The cold and the pain of living day-by-day in this place
Let's get away

Riding down the highway, Lord it might be a freeway
It's the right way, it's with you
Sliding by the ocean, two hearts set in motion
One love, one life, be my Golden State Girl

Hipsters argue about the proposition
We are living in the Mission District, life is good
But despite the fog and sun, my restless heart was born to run away

Good night San Francisco, sweet dreams San Jose
Fare thee well my true lover
I am gone, gold you'll stay
Sit there by the ocean, watch the sun set on the bay
Don't think of me too often, let the tide wash me away

Riding down the highway, Lord it might be a freeway
It's the right way, it's with you
Sliding by the ocean, two hearts set in motion
One love, one life, be my Golden State Girl

Good night San Francisco, sweet dreams San Jose
Fare thee well my lover
I am gone, gold you'll stay
I am gone, gold you'll stay
