Lyrics
California Love
Interpolation copyright 2006 Daniel Sullivan
Well let me welcome everybody to the wild wild west,
A state that's untouchable like Elliot Ness,
The track hits your ear drum like a slug to your chest,
Like a vest for your Jimmy in the city of sex,
We in that sunshine state where the bomb-ass ends be,
A stated where you'll never find the dance floor empty,
A modern day cowboy on the scene,
A lean mean hillbilly machine serving things,
I'm changing the game I'm mixing banjo with rap tunes,
Daisy dukes on my stage making something old new,
And now I'm crossing cultures a sign of the times.
The beat is Universal aint no color lines,
And it's all good from Diego to the bay,
Your city is the bomb if your cities making play.
throw out some love if you feel the same way,
galactic Dan putting it down for California,
California knows how to party,
California knows how to party,
In the city, city of LA,
In the city, good ole Venice,
In the city, city of Compton,
Keep it rockin', keep it rockin.
Shake shake it baby, shake shake it,
Shake, shake it mama, shake it Cali,
Out on the trail I never fail California dreaming,
Soon as I step on the stage I hear the crowd is screaming,
Because their loving the fact that we can integrate,
Spreading love in a world where so many love to hate,
Only in Cali can you cruise along the streets of gold,
Surfing Rincon in the morning and at night be boarding snow,
It's a place where we celebrate a vast Diversity,
And the sun shines for everyone the truth is plain to see,
Famous cause we're programmed,
Worldwide, let them recognize from Long Beach to Rosecrans,
Bumpin and grindin like a slow jam,
Honkystomp rock your booty like a no band,
Say what you say but give me that backbeat today,
Let me serenade the streets of LA,
From Oakland to Sactown, the Bay area and back down,
Cali is where I put my hat down, give me love!
California knows how to party,
California knows how to party,
In the city, city of LA,
In the city, good ole Venice,
In the city, city of Compton,
Keep it rockin', keep it rockin.
Shake shake it baby, shake shake it,
Shake, shake it mama, shake it Cali,
