San Francisco
Audrey Landers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

(San Francisco)
If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you are going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there

(San Francisco)
For those who come to San Francisco

Summertime will be so lovely there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair

(San Francisco)
All across the nation
Such a strong vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation
With a new explanation
People in motion
People in motion

(Instrumental)

For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be so lovely there

If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be so lovely there

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Audrey Landers's song San Francisco express a sense of joyful optimism and hope for a peaceful community in the city of San Francisco during the summertime. The first verse is an invitation to visitors to the city to wear flowers in their hair, a gesture of peace and love that was popular during the hippie movement of the 60s and 70s. The second verse expresses the beauty and charm of the city during the summer months, with an emphasis on the gentleness of the people who inhabit it.

The third verse is more political in nature, with references to a "strong vibration" and a "new explanation." This suggests a sense of progressive change and movement among the people, perhaps towards greater political and social equality. The final verse repeats the message of the first, urging visitors to come to San Francisco during summertime and enjoy the loveliness of the people and place.
