AMERICA (1972) - Ventura Highway

Chewingonapiece of grass Walking down the road

Tell me, how long you gonna stay here, Joe?

Some people say this town don't look good in snow

You don't care, I know

 

Ventura Highway in the suuunshine 

Where the days are longer

The nights are stronger than moonshine

You're gonna go I kno-o-o-o-o-ow

 

'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair

And the days surround your daylight there

Seasons crying no despair

Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

 

Did di di di dit 

 

Wishin'onafalling star Waitin' for the eeeearly train

Sorry boy, but I've been hit by puuuurple rain

Aw, come on, Joe, you can always Change your name

Thanks a lot, son, just the same

 

Ventura Highway in the suuunshine 

Where the days are longer

The nights are stronger than moonshine

You're gonna go I kno-o-o-o-o-ow

 

'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair

And the days surround your daylight there

Seasons crying no despair

Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

 

Did di di di dit ...
