Dani California

Getting old in the state of Mississippi

Papa was a copper and a mama was a hippie

In Alabama, she was wearing a hammer

Pricey got a pair when you flicked the panorama

She never knew that there was anything more than gold

What in the world does your confidence trade me for

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana

Robbing on a bank in the state of Indiana

She's a runner, rebel, and a stunner

On the meadow there saying, "Baby, what you gonna do?"

Lookin' down the barrel of a hot man with 40 wires

Just another way to survive

California, rest in peace

Simultaneous release

California, chew your teeth

She's my priestess, I'm your priest, yeah, yeah

She's a lover, baby, and a fighter

Shoulda seen her come when it got a little brighter

With a name like Diana California

Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya

Her little lotus, she was stealing my nervous

I love my baby to death

Headed for your residencies, Simultaneous greetings

Headed for your surety, Choose my priestess, I'm your priestess

Down in the badlands, you decided my best for last

It only hurts when I'm last

Don't you fear

California, rest in peace

Time will take a new lease

California, shoot your team

Shoot 'em, please, then stomp your feet

Yeah, yeah

California, let's give 'em peace

Time will take me, yes, please

California, shoot your team

And I'ma be standing side of your face, yeah, yeah
