Getting born in the state of Mississippi

Papa was a copper and mama was a hippie

In Alabama she was swinging hammer

Price you gotta pay when you pick the panarama

She never knew that there was anything more than poor

What in the world?

What does your confidant take me for?

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana

robbing on a bank in the state of Indiana

She's a runner, rebel and a stunner

On her merry way saying baby whatcha gonna

Looking down the barrel of a hop and a forty five

Just another way to survive

California rest in peace

Simultaneous release

California show your teeth

She's my priestess, I'm your priest

She's a lover baby and a fighter

Should of seen her coming when it got a little brighter

With a name like Dani California

Devils gonna come but I was gonna warn ya

A little lonely, she was stealing another breath

I love my baby to death

California rest in peace

Simultaneous release

California show your teeth

She's my priestess, I'm your priest

Who knew the other side of you?

Who knew that all this tired to prove

Too true to say good bye to you

Too true to say say say..

Was the baiter gifted and a made her

One for the now and eleven for the later

Never made it up to Mineesota

North Dakota man was a gunning for the quota

Down in the valley she was saving the best for last

It only hurts when I laugh

Goin' too fast..

California rest in peace

Simultaneous release,

California show your teeth,

She's my priestess, I'm your priest

California rest in peace

Simultaneous release,

California show your teeth,

She's my priestess, I'm your priest
