Goin' to a party,

Meet me out after school.

Well we go to a place

Where the jive is really cool.

And if the band stops a playin'

There's a jukebox in the hall.

Well put your blue dress on,

And your folks all gone.

You'll sure give the guys a ball.

Chorus:

Get that real guitar boy shakin',

I'm a california man,

Dance right on till the floors are breakin'

I'm a california man.

Well i cross my mamma so bad

And this a woman's just a making me mad.

So i don't care if your legs start aching,

I'm a california man.

Oh my, i'm a california man.

Oh my legs start to shiver

When i hear you call my name.

Well, my knees keep a knocking,

And my bow tie's bustin' out

An' when we take off fine,

An' my jeans are way down low.

When i waggle my hips

It's making me feel like a king of rock n' roll
