Stars in California

I went down to Beaumont, where all them angels fly
Something in the air down there makes me afraid to die, so I looked across the
channel
I couldn t take the view without you
Passing through the midnight, with the dawn upon my head
Trying to beat the morning, lost I m weak, Maybe after sunrise I ll wait
another day
I d be ok, I would be ok
Cause they ve got stars in California, walking down the streets
Dancing on the boulevard in their golden satin sheets
Busking on the corner, for some change, for tips and for me
For old memories, for old memories
Driving through Las Cruces, straddling the lights, staring up at Jesus
With the devil on my mind. Now I m not one for praying
The desert sun can bleach you to the bone, it can bleach you to the bone
And they ve got stars in California, walking down the streets
Dancing on the boulevard, in their golden satin sheets
Busking on the corner, for some change, for tips and for me
For old memories, for old memories
They ve got stars in California, just walking down the streets
They re dancing on the boulevard, in golden satin sheets
So now I m busking on the corner, for some change, for tips and for me, for me
And for my old memories, for old memories
