All the gold in California
Is in the bank in the middle of Beverly Hills
In somebody else's name
So if you're dreamin' about California
It don't matter at all where you played before
California's a brand-new game
Tryin' to be a hero, widing up a zero
Can scar a man forever right down to your soul
Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright
'Cause everything that glitters is not gold
All the gold in California
In in the bank in the middle of Beverly Hills
In somebody else's name
So if you're dreamin' about California
It don't matter at all where you've played before
California's a brand-new game
