"California Dream" lyrics
"California Dream"
It's been fifteen years now since the wine took hold of me
And the call of the wild it came so strong I just had to be free
Now I'm so tired of railroad tracks hobo camps and streams
And I wanna go back to my California dreams
It's seems like only yesterday I had such big plans
California sunshine Hollywood and girls money in both hands
But sittin' here in the cold night air I hear that lonesome whistle scream
I'll never get back to my California dreams
That ol' midnight train is a-flyin' low headin' for New Orleans
It's so cold standin' here I know what that means
Tomorrow I'll be in Dixie where the soft warm winds blow
Cause a hobo just don't care which way that ol' train goes
Cause one of these days I'll get to LA when I do boys watch my steam
Oh I gotta get back to my California dreams
Oh California here I come

Merle Haggard - "Rainbow Stew" There's a big brown cloud in the city
And the countryside's a sin
And the price of life is too high to give up
Gotta come down again
When the world wide war is over and done
And the dream of peace...
Steve Earle - "Copperhead Road" Well my name's John Lee Pettimore
Same as my daddy and his daddy before
You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here
He only came to town about twice a year
He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some...
Gene Watson - "Paper Rosie" The sun goes down in Calvin county
Neon lights from an old beer sign
Shown through the window out on the sidewalk
As I walked in to pass the time
I looked around, sat down at a table
Ordered beef on...
Cal Smith - "I've Found Someone Of My Own" I got up this morning and while I was having my coffee
My woman came in and sat down by my side
With tears in her eyes she said I have a confession to make
And I said woman speak what's on your mind...
Don Williams - "I Believe In You" I don't believe in superstars
Organic food and foreign cars
I don't believe the price of gold
The certainty of growing old
That right is right and left is wrong
That north and south can't get along...
