"California Maiden" lyrics

California maiden with your suitcase home
No one owned you, no one phoned you, you're alone
Free as winter sunshine through a cloudy sky
Clothes in tatters, nothing matters, you'll get by

Like a seagull in the sky
Lots of winter birds way up high
People try to clip your wings and tame you, oh why, oh why
It's your life, and you're living it, don't give a minute away
It's your life, and you're living it, don't give a minute away

Summer finds you sleeping on a beach in Cannes
You've had lovers, there'll be others, but there's no one man
Maybe someday you will marry but right now
You're in no hurry, got no worries anyhow

Like a seagull in the sky
Lots of winter birds way up high
People try to clip your wings and tame you, oh why, oh why
It's your life, and you're living it, don't give a minute away
It's your life, and you're living it, don't give a minute away

It's your life, and you're living it, don't give a minute away
It's your life, and you're living it, don't give a minute away
No no no no
It's your life, and you're living it, don't you give a minute away
