California High

[Verse 1]

In the desert I call home

There's a place I like to go, to feel less alone

Take a dive in the pool of time

In the shade of valley low

Where a maze of mushrooms grow, and the ocotillos glow

[Pre-Chorus]

Lai-di-dai, that's when I get high

Oh, I get

[Chorus]

High

On nostalgia, my favorite drug

My fading life

Mojave winds, dust on our skin

Sun in your eyes

Memories of us, lost in the dust

California High

[Verse 2]

In my life of wanderin'

When I play guitar and sing, everybody drinks

To the Bedouin nights, and the world gone by

I've been trying to movе on

Tip my hat and say "so long"

Sing a different song

[Pre-Chorus]

Lai-di-dai, but then I gеt high

Oh, I get

[Chorus]

High

On nostalgia, my favorite drug

My fading life

Mojave winds, dust on our skin

Sun in your eyes

Memories of us, lost in the dust

California High

On nostalgia, my favorite drug

My fading life

Mojave winds, dust on our skin

Sun in your eyes

Memories of us, lost in the dust

California High
