"Golden Grass" lyrics

"Golden Grass"

Down in a San Francisco Holler
The songs echo through the cypress trees
Golden highway stretches out forever
And the sun slowly sinks into the sea

Way out west we do it differently
Untraditionally

We just like the sound
Are you listening?
We just burn one down
Can you'll feel it?
Just relax
It's golden grass

Ain't no blues when you're standing on the summit
Of a snow clad California peak
Buttered rum warms up your belly
While the poor men drink their whiskey

We don't mind if you do it differently
Just take it at the pace it wants to be

We just like the sound
Are you listening?
We just burn one down
Can you'll feel it?
Just relax
It's golden grass

If I'm ever in the way and getting old
Just give me some California gold
On a windy hill we'll sing some harmony
We'll take it where the music wants to be
My grass is golden...

We just like the sound
Are you listening?
We just burn one down
Can you'll feel it?
Just relax
It's golden grass
