Katey Perry (Feat. Snoop Dogg) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let's take a journey
I know a place
Where the grass is really greener
Warm, wet and wild
There must be something in the water
Sippin' gin and juice
The boys
Break their necks
Try'na to creep a little sneak peek
(at us)
You could travel the world
But nothing comes close
To the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooooh oh oooooh
California girls
We're unforgettable
Daisy dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
We'll melt your popsicle
Oooooh oh oooooh
California girls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
West coast represent
Now put your hands up
Oooooh oh oooooh
Sex on the beach
We don't mind sand in our stilettoes
We freak
In my jeep
Snoop doggy dogg on the stereo
You could travel the world
But nothing comes close
To the golden coast
Once you party with us
You'll be falling in love
Oooooh oh oooooh
California girls
We're unforgettable
Daisy dukes
Bikinis on top
Sun-kissed skin
So hot
We'll melt your popsicle
Oooooh oh oooooh
California girls
We're undeniable
Fine, fresh, fierce
We got it on lock
West coast represent
Now put your hands up
Oooooh oh oooooh
Tone, tan
Fit and ready
Turn it up cause its gettin' heavy
Wild wild west coast
These are the girls I love the most
I mean the ones
I mean like she's the one
Kiss her
Touch her
Squeeze her buns
The girl's a freak
She drive a jeep
In laguna beach

Just like I love la
Venice beach
And palm springs
Summertime is everything
Homeboys
