Lyrics
San Francisco
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you are going to San Francisco,
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you are going to San Francisco,
You're gonna meet some gentle people there
For those who come to San Francisco,
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair
All across the nation,
Such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation
With a new explanation
People in motion, people in motion
For those who come to San Francisco,
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco,
Summertime will be a love-in there
If you come to San Francisco,
Summertime will be a love-in there
San Francisco
San Francisco
