"City Painted Gold" lyrics

Walkin' on down by the side of the road
Making my way back to San Francisco
I said ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oooohh

It's been so long that I've been gone (Goin' back to find my home)
Ain't no better place I've known (Goin' back to find my home)
I said ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oooohh

Headed to a city painted gold
Different color than I used to know
There's no place for me here no more

Upon my return what did I see? (Goin' down to find my home)
A whole different city staring back at me (Goin' down to find my home)
I said ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oooohh

Well all my friends are leaving town (Goin' down to find my home)
Well someone like me go down, (Goin' down to find my home)
I said ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oooohh

Headed to a city painted gold
Different color than I used to know
There's no place for me here no more

Do I follow my heart, do I follow the sun?
Do I pack my bags do I get up and run?

Headed to a city painted gold
Different color than I used to know
There's no place for me here no more
