Lyrics
California Christmas
I was born on the sidewalks of New York
Where the winters were cold
And the snow turned to slush
So I left on the fastest westbound train
Just a couple of bucks to my name
Never to return.
It's Christmas time
Sun is rising
Glowing in an orange-colored sky
Sailboats heading from Marina del Rey to the bay
It's a California Christmas at your door
With the coming of the New Year
Rose Bowl parade and more
It's a California Christmas galore.
It's Christmas time
Catalina, palm trees swaying in the breeze to the sky
It's Christmas time
Coronado, head on down the coast to Mexico,
from San Francisco to San Diego
Santa Barbara to LA
It's a California Christmas
Filled with joy and hope and play.
It's a California Christmas
Every day.
