Walking on down by the side of the road
Making my way back to San Francisco
I said ooohhh
Ooohhh
It's been so long that I've been gone
(Going down to find my home)
Ain't no better place I know
(Going down to find my home)
I said ooohhh
Oooohhhhh
Headed to a city painted gold
Different colour than I used to know
There's no place for me here no more
Upon my return what did see
(Going down to find my home)
Whole different city staring back at me
(Going down to find my home)
I said ooohhh
Oooohhhhh
Well all my friends are leaving town
(Going down to find my home)
Where someone like me go down
(Going down to find my home)
I said ooohhhh
Oooohhhh
Headed to a city painted gold
Different colour than I used to know
There's no place for me here no more
Do I follow my heart, do I follow the sun
Do I pack my bags, do I get up and run
Headed to a city painted gold
(Painted gold)
Different colour than I used to know
(Used to know)
There's no place for me here no more
