Santa Cruz Songtext
von J.J. Cale

Oo-wee how did I lose
Talkin′ about a night in Santa Cruz
Oo-wee how did I lose
Talkin' about a night in Santa Cruz

Well, I came to coast from L.A.
Just to give a little music to boo me away
Hey J.J. can you play Cocaine
Do After Midnight it′s all the same

Oo-wee how did I lose
Talkin' about a night in Santa Cruz
Oo-wee how did I lose
I'll tell you about the night in Santa Cruz


Well, we didn′t play long it booed too soon
I can′t do right no matter what you do
A girl in the crowd, at the finale
Shouted at me had I even turned

Another man left 'cause he didn′t stay long
I thought we had played his favorite song
Hey you, pull that weight
As soon as it's cleaned up then I′ll fade away

My friends and I hope you're glad to see
Me and my friends coming off the street

Play, Richard

I don′t mean a man can't lose
Just stay by the night in Santa Cruz
Just stay by the night in Santa Cruz
I don't mean a man can′t lose
