歌词
Sitting in a park in Paris, France
坐在法国巴黎的公园长椅上
Reading the news and it’s all bad
读着都是烦心事而的新闻
They won't give peace a chance
和平二字简直就是天方夜谭
That was just a dream some of us had
这只是我们的梦罢了
Still a lot of lands to see
还有连绵的景色待我游览
But I wouldn't want stay here
但姐姐偏偏不想搁这儿呆了
It's too old and cold and settled in its ways here
这儿又古老又贼拉的冷还束缚了本仙女不羁的灵魂
Oh, but California
但是吧，加利福尼亚吧，特别带劲儿
California, I'm coming home
加州，我来啦
I’m going to see the folks I dig
我要去见离去的亲人
I’ll even kiss a sunset pig
没准再和头老猪亲吻
California, when I get home
加州，当我到家的时候
I met a redneck on a Grecian isle
我在希腊小岛见过个老农夫
Who did the goat dance very well
他跳山羊舞跟真山羊似的
He gave me back my smile
我搁那儿乐，他也笑了
But he kept my camera to sell
但他留着我的相机准备卖掉……
Oh, the rogue, the red red rogue
啊，那个老流氓，那个乡巴佬
He cooked good omelets and stews
他做的一手好煎蛋卷和香喷喷的炖菜
And I might have stayed on with him there
本来没准姐姐就跟他耗在那儿了
But my heart cried out for you, California
但我的心只属于你呀，我的加州
Oh, California, I'm coming home
噢，加州，姐要回家
Oh, make me feel good rock'n roll band
啊，那愉悦的摇滚乐队
I’m your biggest fan
我是你们的铁杆粉
California, I'm coming home

Oh, it gets so lonely

When you're walking
当你自个儿走在街上
And the streets are full of strangers
被生人包围着
All the news of home you read

Just give you the blues
只让你黯然神伤…
So I bought me a ticket
于是本仙女给自己买了个机票
I got on a plane to Spain

Went to a party down a red dirt road
沿着红色的乡村土路去参加聚会
There were lots of pretty people there

Reading Rolling Stone, reading Vogue
他们读着《滚石》，看着《时尚》
They said, "How long can you hang around?"

I said a week, maybe two

Just until my skin turns brown
等我变成棕色美人就走
Then I'm going home to California

Strung out on another man

When you're walking

And the streets are full of strangers
周围全是陌生人

And the bloody changes
