Queen Of California
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.
Goodbye cold, goodbye rain
Goodbye sorrow, and goodbye shame
I'm headin' out west with my headphones on
Boarded a flight with a song in the back of my soul
That no one knows
I just found out her ghost left town
The Queen of California is a-steppin' down, down
Hello beauty, hello strange
Hello wonder, what's your name?
Looking for the sun that Neil Young hummed
After the Gold Rush of 1971
I just found out her ghost left town
The Queen of California is a-steppin' down, down
If you see her, say hello
Just don't tell me: I told you so
Joni wrote Blue in a house by the sea
I gotta believe there's another color waiting on me
To set me free
I just found out her ghost left town
The Queen of California is a-steppin' down, down, down
Get down
