Erin Smith - Hey California lyrics
rate mePicked up a pen and paper
Trying to find the words to write this song
Need some kind of inspiration
Need some help to come along
Shall I drive across the mountain
How about watch the lights turn green
All these things have got me thinking
It's right in front of me
Hey California just thought that I would say hello
How you been howz the warm sand I haven't felt it for awhile
Hey California you're always up and ready to shine
Got my left hand out the window
I think I'll take you for a ride yeah yeah (California)
Drive my way down to the sand
Highway 1 the traffic's jammed
Turn the music up and loud
Sing away scream and shout
Wrote a message in a bottle
Sent it far into the sea
Hoping that a pirate finds it
Sets the scribbled paper free
Hey California just thought that I would say hello
How you been howz the warm sand I haven't felt it for awhile
Hey California you're always up and ready to shine
Got my left hand out the window
I think I'll take you for a ride yeah yeah (Hey California)
Uh oh why'd you have to go
Finding time doesn't matter in my mind
Like a ticking time bomb every day in the long run write it all down till it's all said and done
Oh oh sittin here looking at a blank piece of perfect paper
Soon be ripped inked finger prints stuffed in a wine bottle send it to the first ship on it's trip
Hey California just thought that I would say hello
How you been howz the warm sand I haven't felt it for awhile
Hey California you're always up and ready to shine (Send it out Send it out to the water)
Got my left hand out the window
Think I'll take ya for a ride... yeah... Hey California Hey California
Take a ride... La la la laa la... Hey California!
