Lyrics

Adios California
words & music by Dennis Coats / Five String Music / BMI


It was a crazy tune, the freeway moon was shining
with the radio loud, I'm lost in the crowd and flying
it was bumper to bumper in L.A.
but nothing is bothering me today
it's the Northern Lights shining in my eyes


Adios California
Buenos dias Montania
Oregon can grow tacos
and Idaho burritos


I was asleep at the wheel through Bakersfield, I'm not lying
don't you tell a soul in Sacramento, and don't be crying
'cause she's waiting for me on a mountain high
where the stars are shining down on our cabin tonight
it's the Northern Lights shining in my eyes

Adios California
Buenos dias Montania
Oregon can grow tacos
and Idaho burritos
