Johnny Joe From California Songtext
von Jackie DeShannon

Johnny Joe from California
I got to put some lovin′ on ya
You'll be all mine before too long
When I′m with you I sing a song

About gettin' high in San Francisco
And takin' you wherever I go
I feel you now, warm ′n′ soft
Without you boy, hey, you know I'm lost

Johnny Joe from California
I gotta get a diamond for ya
To tell you, love, I′m not far away
So shine a little longer, California day


Born in a truck and lookin' out a window
Countin′ poles on the telephone lines
A few more miles and I'll be with you
So come on, mister, get to bed on time

California, here I come, well heh
California, here I come, whoa ho
California, here I come, uh huh, mon′

Johnny Joe from California
I got to put some lovin' on ya
You'll be all mine ′fore too long
When I′m with you I sing a song

About gettin' high in San Francisco
And takin′ you wherever I go
I feel you now, warm 'n′ soft
Without you boy, hey, you know I'm lost

Johnny Joe from California
I gotta get a diamond for ya
To tell you, love, I′m not far away
So shine a little longer, California day
