California lyrics

I was converted to the other side

From the day I'd gotten there

I met a girl who took me on a ride

I was young I had no cares

When I moved to California

California

She played me records I had never heard

While we toked on purple hairs

Who, Zeppelin, Beatles

Kiss, The Rolling Stones

While we played guitars in air

When I moved to California

California California

California love

Venice Beach and P.O.P.

Station 26 was free

Jeff Ho and Horizons west

Dogtown Skates they were the best

Hang Ten, O.P. were the brands

Don't forget the two-tone Vans

I miss the Apple and my schoolyard boys

Nothing ever will compare

But now I skateboard

With my surfer girl

And we really are a pair

When I moved to California

California

California

California love
