America - Ventura Highway Lyrics

Chewing on a piece of grass, walking down the road
Tell me how long you gonna stay here, Joe?
Some people say this town don't look good in snow
You don't care, I know

Ventura Highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You're gonna go, I know

'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit

Wishin' on a falling star, waitin' for the early train
Sorry boy, but I've been hit by a purple rain
Aww, come on, Joe, you can always change your name
Thanks a lot son, just the same

Ventura Highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You're gonna go, I know

'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit
Di dit, di dit, di dit, di dit

  "Ventura Highway" has always been, for me, the spirit of the California dream. A long drive down the Pacific Coast.
