California Soul

(앨범: Stoned Soul Picnic - 1968)

Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear
But you can't forget
From sundown to sunset
It's all in the air
You hear it everywhere
No matter what you do
It's gonna grab a hold on you
California soul, California soul

They say the sun comes up every morning
And if you listen oh so carefully
The winds that ride on the high time
Whistle in melody
And so the people started to sing
And that's how the surf gave birth untold
To California soul, California soul

When you hear the beat
You wanna pat your feet
And you've got to move cause
It's really such a groove
Puts a brand new kind of thinking in your mind
And you can't go wrong
'Cause you're grooving all day long
California soul, California soul

They had the melody and the beat
But it still didn't seem complete
Until they saw two lovers kissing
They knew just what was missing
So happy they were rocking and reelin
Because that added that loving feeling
To California soul, California soul
Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear
