Red Hot Chili Peppers - Dani California Lyrics
Getting born in the state of MississippiPoppa was a copper and my momma was a hippieIn Alabama she would swing a hammerPrice you gotta pay when you break the panoramaShe never knew that there was anything more than poorWhat in the world does your company take me for?Black bandanna, sweet LouisianaRobbin' on all the bank in the state of IndianaShe's a runner, rebel and a stunnerOn her merry way saying baby what you gonnaLookin' down the barrel of a hot metal.45Just another way to surviveChorus:California rest in peaceSimultaneous releaseCalifornia show your teethShe's my priestess, I'm your priestYeah, yeahShe's a lover, baby and a fighterShould've seen her coming when it got a little brighterWith a name like Dani CaliforniaDay was gonna come when I was gonna mourn yaA little lonely she was stealing another breathI love my baby to deathChorus:California rest in peaceSimultaneous releaseCalifornia show your teethShe's my priestess, I'm your priestYeah, yeahWho knew the other side of youWho knew what others died to proveToo true to say goodbye to youToo true, too say say sayPush the fader, gifted animatorOne for the now and eleven for the laterNever made it up to MinnesotaNorth Dakota man was a gunnin' for the quotaDown in the badlands she was saving the best for lastIt only hurts when I laughGone too fastChorus:California rest in peaceSimultaneous releaseCalifornia show your teethShe's my priestess, I'm your priestYeah, yeahCalifornia rest in peaceSimultaneous releaseCalifornia show your teethShe's my priestess, I'm your priestYeah, yeah
