It was the very edge of summer |
|
the air was thin the sky more pale |
|
Dusty roads I remember |
|
Oh so well... |
|
The winds of future blew around us |
|
The owners came to tell their tale, |
|
feelin' like a piece of paper |
|
in a gale. |
|
Go West, go West. |
|
where there's fruit in every place |
|
a smile on every face... |
|
Go West, go West... |
|
Where there's work (so I'm told) |
|
California's never cold, |
|
so Go West... |
|
We sold part' our lives |
|
for 18 dollars... |
|
Bought a Hudson Super-6 |
|
Travelled on down the highway |
|
with no rest... |
|
Childhood memories behind us |
|
Grown-up feelings lie ahead, |
|
Asked my Dad why we're going |
|
and he said... |
|
Go West, Go West |
|
Where there's fruit in every place |
|
a smile on every face... |
|
Go West, Go West... |
|
Where there's work (so I'm told) |
|
California's never cold... so, |
|
Go West... |
