about

recorded on a vintage tascam 2 inch tape reel to reel at the Aglipay studio.

lyrics

drove across the desert 24 hours straight
black coffee and cigarettes at an alarming rate
but when i crested that hill the diamond ocean below me filled
i drove down to the beach and i jumped right in

california's on fire again, california's on fire again,
every time i see the flames shoot up in the sky
i ask myself why the hell did i move out here?

drove the mountain pass on about thirteen
them rollin' golden hills and evergreens
flowin' feeder creeks everywhere i cast my eye
i drove down to the creek and i jumped right in

california's on fire again, california's on fire again
every time i see the flames shoot up in the sky
i ask myself why the hell did i move out here?

drivin' highway 1 twistin' like a snake
the surf on the right is callin' my name
your black rock beach prettiest i ever seen
sat down to roll a number didn't worry
about the lightning and the thunder

california's on fire again, california's on fire again
every time i see the flames shoot up in the sky
i ask myself why the hell did i move out here?
