Let me carry that old suitcase hon
And here's my hat to shade your pretty head
From the sun
Let's keep moving down the road
That has no end it seems
For a long time we've been dreaming
California dreams
Where the sands are gold
And blue the sea
Money grows from every tree
It's always there for you and me
California dreams
This old road gets longer every mile
And honey I know this is no place
For a woman with child
But soon we'll have someone to share
Our plans and our schemes
And our baby will be a part of
California dreams
I should have known
This would be too much for you
But I thank you honey
For loving me enough to come along
Cause you've been so true
And it just won't be the same
When I'll reach California's shining sea
Cause without you there beside me
There's just no California dreams
Where the sands are gold
And blue the sea
Money grows from every tree
It's always there for you and me
California dreams
California dreams
California dreams
