The Mamas
California Dreaming performed by the Mamas and the Papas
Lyrics:
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)
Ive been for a walk (Ive been for a walk)
On a winters day (on a winters day)
Id be safe and warm (Id be safe and warm)
If I was in L.A. (if I was in L.A.)
California dreamin (California dreamin)
On such a winters day
Stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees (got down on my knees)
And I pretend to pray (I pretend to pray)
You know the preacher like the cold (preacher like the cold)
He knows Im gonna stay (knows Im gonna stay)
California dreamin (California dreamin)
On such a winters day
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)
Ive been for a walk (Ive been for a walk)
On a winters day (on a winters day)
If I didnt tell her (if I didnt tell her)
I could leave today (I could leave today)
California dreamin (California dreamin)
On such a winters day (California dreamin)
On such a winters day (California dreamin)
On such a winters day
