| If everybody in the U.S.A
|
| Could come with us to Californ-i-a
|
| We could take 'em to a place out west
|
| Where the good sun shines everyday
|
| Now there’s a touch o' Californ-i-a
|
| In everyone who’s ever been this way
|
| And when your telephone begins to ring
|
| And the operator comes on the line
|
| California callin'
|
| I’ll be there right away
|
| There’s some beautiful women
|
| Gonna find me one
|
| To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
| Now I’ve joined the surfin' nation and so
|
| I’ll take a permanent vacation and go To the golden shores of 'Frisco Bay
|
| I’ll ride 'em all the way to Malibu
|
| And I’ll take ya' boogie boardin' with me
|
| 'Cause when we’re surfin' it’s so great to be free
|
| And when you’re on a California beach
|
| You might even find 'em windsurfin' too
|
| California callin'
|
| I’ll be there right away
|
| There’s some beautiful women
|
| Gonna find me one
|
| To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
| In the fifties it was «Hey Daddy O»
|
| Then came the surfers and the Hodads ya' know
|
| We had our woodies and our custom cars
|
| And when we drove around we knew we were bad
|
| My baby listens to my car radio
|
| And when we’re cruisin' lets the whole world know
|
| And when our favorite surfin' song comes on We always let 'em know it’s «Totally Rad!»
|
| California callin'
|
| I’ll be there right away
|
| There’s some beautiful women
|
| Gonna find me one
|
| To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
| California callin'
|
| She’s still on the line
|
| There’s a beautiful woman
|
| Gonna show me how
|
| To ride 'em at the county line
|
| California callin'
|
| I’ll be there right away
|
| There’s some beautiful women
|
| Gonna find me one
