Lyrics
I’ll sail my ship down the Sunset Strip
Maybe I can take it all the way
And make you mine by Hollywood and Vine
Maybe I can die another day
For they say the Big One’s coming soon
And California’s running out of room
But I’ll sail my ship down the Sunset Strip
When all the West Coast flowers are in bloom
I will dream and drive the California 5
Maybe I can watch the sun go down
And dance with you through the morning dew
In a field with flowers all around
For they say the Big One’s coming soon
And California’s running out of room
But I’ll dream and drive the California 5
When all the West Coast flowers are in bloom
Hey now, hey now, hey now, and now, and hey
Hey now, hey now, and hey
Hey now, hey now, hey now, and now, and hey
Hey now, hey now, and hey
I’ll ride that train and whisper out your name
Captive to the colors rushing by
Everything I see, pretty as can be
Won’t you save a kiss for me goodbye
For they say the Big One’s coming soon
And California’s running out of room
But I’ll ride that train, and whisper out your name
When all the West Coast flowers are in bloom
Hey now, hey now, hey now, and now, and hey
Hey now, hey now, and hey
Hey now, hey now, hew now, and now, and hey
Hey now, hey now, and hey
