"California Man" lyrics
(originally by The Move)
Going to a party
Meet me out after school
Well, we're going to a place
Where the jive is really cool
And if the band stops playing
There's a jukebox down the hall
And with your blue dress on
And your folks all gone
Really give the guys a ball
Get that real guitar boy shakin'
I'm a California man
Dance right on 'til the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man
Well, I racked my mama so bad
That woman, she's a-making me mad
I don't care if your legs start achin'
I'm a California man
Well, my legs start to shiver
When I hear you call my name
Yeah, my knees keep a-knocking
And my bow tie's busted out
When my feet start to fly
My jeans hung way down low
You know I'm back on my heels
And it's making me feel
Like the king of rock 'n' roll
Get that real guitar boy shakin'
I'm a California man
Dance right on 'til the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man
Well, I racked my mama so bad
That woman, she's a-making me mad
I don't care if your legs start achin'
I'm a California man
I'm a California man
Going to a party
Meet me out after school
Yeah, going to a place
Where the jive is really cool
And if the band stops playing
There's a jukebox down the hall
And with your blue dress on
And your folks all gone
Really give the guys a ball
Get that real guitar boy shakin'
I'm a California man
Dance right on 'til the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man
You know, I racked my mama so bad
That woman, she's a-making me mad
I don't care if your legs start achin'
I'm a California man
I'm a California man
I'm a California man
Aw
Meet me out after school
Well, we're going to a place
Where the jive is really cool
And if the band stops playing
There's a jukebox down the hall
And with your blue dress on
And your folks all gone
Really give the guys a ball
Get that real guitar boy shakin'
I'm a California man
Dance right on 'til the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man
Well, I racked my mama so bad
That woman, she's a-making me mad
I don't care if your legs start achin'
I'm a California man
Well, my legs start to shiver
When I hear you call my name
Yeah, my knees keep a-knocking
And my bow tie's busted out
When my feet start to fly
My jeans hung way down low
You know I'm back on my heels
And it's making me feel
Like the king of rock 'n' roll
Get that real guitar boy shakin'
I'm a California man
Dance right on 'til the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man
Well, I racked my mama so bad
That woman, she's a-making me mad
I don't care if your legs start achin'
I'm a California man
I'm a California man
Going to a party
Meet me out after school
Yeah, going to a place
Where the jive is really cool
And if the band stops playing
There's a jukebox down the hall
And with your blue dress on
And your folks all gone
Really give the guys a ball
Get that real guitar boy shakin'
I'm a California man
Dance right on 'til the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man
You know, I racked my mama so bad
That woman, she's a-making me mad
I don't care if your legs start achin'
I'm a California man
I'm a California man
I'm a California man
Aw
