Getting born in the state of Mississippi
Papa was a copper
And her mama was a hippie
In Alabama she would swing a hammer
Price you got to pay when you pick the panorama
She never knew that there was
Anything more than poor
What in the world what does your
Company take me for
Black bandana sweet Louisiana
Robbin' on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
running everywhere sayin'
Baby what 'cha gonna
Looking down the barrel of a
Hot metal 45
Just another way to survive
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess; I'm your priest
Yeah yeah
She's a lover baby and a fighter
Shoulda seen it comin' when
It got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
The day was gonna come
When I was gonna mourn ya'
A little loaded she was
[Dani California lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]
Stealin' another breath
I loved my baby to death
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess; I'm your priest
yeah yeah
Who knew the other side of you
Who knew what others died to prove
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true to sad sad sad
Push the fader gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota
North Dakota man was gunnin'
For the quota
Down in the badlands
She was savin' the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Come too fast
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess; I'm your priest
Yeah Yeah
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess; I'm your priest
Yeah yeah
