California Dreamin' Original lyrics by The Mamas & The Papas
All the leaves are brown And the sky is gray I've been for a walk On a winter's day I'd be safe and warm If I was in L. A. California dreamin On such a winter's day
Stopped in to a church I passed along the way Well I got down on my knees And I pretend to pray You know the preacher likes the cold He knows I'm gonna stay California dreamin' On such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown And the sky is gray I've been for a walk On a winter's day If I didn't tell her I could leave today California dreamin' On such a winter's day
