Ventura Highway (early take 4) Songtext
von America

Chewing on a piece of grass, walking down the road
Tell me, how long you′re gonna stay here, Joe?
Some people say this town don't look good in snow
You don′t care, I know

Ventura Highway, in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You're gonna go, I know


'Cause the free wind is blowin′ through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying, no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

Wishin′ on a falling star, watching for the early train
Sorry boy, but I've been hit by purple rain
Aw, come on Joe, you can always change your name
Thanks a lot, son, just the same

Ventura Highway, in the sunshine
Where the days are longer
The nights are stronger than moonshine
You′re gonna go, I know


'Cause the free wind is blowin′ through your hair
And the days surround your daylight there
Seasons crying, no despair
Alligator lizards in the air, in the air
