Paroles de San Francisco Blues
In the town where I was born here on the coast of CaliforniaBy the dock of the bay, they often tell
A tidal wave just hit the shore and folks like me, we can't afford
To stick around here in this town we love so well
I got the San Francisco blues
Now there's nothing left to lose
I can't afford the dues and so I'm leaving
I miss the stars that used to shine and the days of '49
But most of all I miss the California dreaming
Before the fights, before the quake
Before the crash of '08
There was magic, you could feel it in your heart
But raise the rent and scrub the street
It gets so hard to make ends meat
Now I can't even pay to ride the cable cars
I got the San Francisco blues
Now there's nothing left to lose
I can't afford the dues and so I'm leaving
I miss the stars that used to shine and the summer of '69
But most of all I miss the California dreaming
I got the San Francisco blues
And my heart is broken too
I can't pay the dues and so I'm leaving
I miss the stars that used to shine and the days of '49
But most of all I miss the California dreaming
Most of all I miss the California dreaming
I can't afford the dues and so I'm leaving
I miss the stars that used to shine and the days of '49
But most of all I miss the California dreaming
Before the fights, before the quake
Before the crash of '08
There was magic, you could feel it in your heart
But raise the rent and scrub the street
It gets so hard to make ends meat
Now I can't even pay to ride the cable cars
I got the San Francisco blues
Now there's nothing left to lose
I can't afford the dues and so I'm leaving
I miss the stars that used to shine and the summer of '69
But most of all I miss the California dreaming
I got the San Francisco blues
And my heart is broken too
I can't pay the dues and so I'm leaving
I miss the stars that used to shine and the days of '49
But most of all I miss the California dreaming
Most of all I miss the California dreaming
