I got off the airplane 'long about 7:30 in l.a. | |
What a drag to realize that everything's so different and so same | |
All my california friends are searchin' for their minds and it's been right there in their heads all the time | |
(chorus) | |
L.a. blues, l.a. blues | |
You want me to be like you | |
Well, there ain't no way | |
California charlie met me at my room when i got in | |
We toasted country pickin' and the health of all our good and mutual friends | |
Before the mornin' came we put a handle on the world and decided that we'd give it to the squirrels | |
(chorus) | |
Soakin' up that sunshine an' eatin' eggs and bacon over light | |
Sleepin' through the daytime an' contemplatin' sin throughout the night | |
Please hand me my hat and darlin' give me back my things ol' t's got a bunch o' songs to sing | |
(chorus) | |
I like california, i wouldn't put it down-- no way | |
But i heard what you're thinkin' and it ain't exactly what i want to say | |
Some day california i'll come roarin' back to you if you don't fall in the ocean 'fore i do | |

Before the mornin' came we put a handle on the world and decided that we' d give it to the squirrels | |
