New york city years ago Tourists in the rain Singin' on the swing shift For pennies Thinkin'bout the bayou Cajun river song Almost got my head broke In texas Purple peacock honky-tonk Eunice, louisiana Bourbon whiskey free, son, Just tune up the piano Workin' clubs in new orleans Bringin' down a dollar College boys drink beer And throw the bottles It's been a long long long way I got some more to go Don't look at my shadow Its behind me Chorus It's been a long long long way In twenty years or so Thinkin'bout those times Might amuse me L.a. forum sports arena Twenty thousand fans Glas ya come to listen i'm gomma Give you everything i can I always had to play my music Play it best i could Hope you in the stands Can hear me good California dreamin' nearly put me down for good Colorado rocky mountains saved my senses Chorus
