california runnin' - marc fontane lyrics
[verse 1]
had to hide myself inside a monastery built in the stone
reverend said, “son, drop the gun”
when i did, my hand was cold
he then turned to the candle set
to fire up a cigarette
while my mind would count every sand of time i’m
[chorus]
california runnin’
have you been waitin’ for me
california runnin’
you are the sweetest melody
[verse 2]
i drank wine with the preacher man in the cellar underground
and we heard them out there playin’ god
though he’s nowhere to be found
oh i’ve known the night so long
i’m overdue for the break of dawn
on the trail of el camino real i’m
[chorus]
california runnin’
have you been waitin’ for me
california runnin’
you are the sweetest melody
[instrumental break]
[chorus]
oh i’m california runnin’
have you been waitin’ for me
california runnin’
you are the sweetest melody
[verse 3]
well, when upon my headin’ out, i shook the father’s hand
he told me, “son, in a world like this, one needs a promised land”
padre gave what he could spare
silver songs and a golden prayer
for the way to where the music plays i’m
[outro]
california runnin’
have you been waitin’ for me
california runnin’
you are the sweetest melody
i’m california runnin’ now
you are the sweetest melody
