Lyrics

Zuma, Oh I'd like to walk the beach on Zuma Watching all those pretty girls Venice, It gets really strange going through Venice There's a different attitude On a many a summer evening Found me searching for the fire The elusive sea of childhood Then became a one desire There were places in the valley Where they said that I could find it There were rhythms in the distance In the ancient elder forest That is why I came to California It's the strangest groove that I have ever known All the youth seekers come to California Following the fountain in their mind San Francisco Catch a cable car to where your dreams go There's a lot of make believe San Diego From LA you'll find out where your dreams flow From the hillside to the desert Following the map inside me I can the feel the road is leading To the treasure that will guide me There were places in the valley Where they said that I could find it There were rhythms in the distance In the ancient elder forest That is why I came to California It's the freest groove that I have ever known All the youth seekers come to Caliornia Following the fountain in their mind, in their mind Zuma Oh I'd like to walk the beach on Zuma Watching all those pretty girls Venice It gets really strange going through Venice There's a different attitude That is why I came to California (California) It's the purest groove that I have ever known All the youth seekers come to Caliornia Following the fountain in their mind That is why I came to California (California) It's the strangest groove that I have ever known (California) All the youth seekers come to California Following the fountain in their mind
