Lyrics
California Evenings
California evenings
Pacific breezes blowin'
Never have my watch on
But the time is gently flowin'
Street cafes along the boulevard
That's my California after dark.
California evenings
Suntanned smiles scheming
Million dollar visions
Fashions changing like the seasons
Venice Beach right by the boulevard-
That's my California after dark.
Small town girl celebrating getting signed
And I'm dreaming that it's me next time
Celebrations last until the dawn
'Till the hazy sun is rising
Fortune there is for the finding.
Scat
Small town girl celebrating getting signed
And I'm dreaming that it's me next time
Celebrations last until the dawn
'Till the hazy sun is rising
Fortune there is for the finding.
California evenings
Sipping Margaritas
Latino man is flirting with me-
Will I be his senorita?
Life is sweet along the boulevard
That's my California after dark.
