California Sun
Porkers The Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where the days are short and the nights are long
Where I'll walk
And they walk
I'll twist
And they twist
And I'll shimmy
And I'll fly
And they fly
Where they're out there having fun
In the warm California sun
Well, I'm going out west
Out on the coast
Where the California girls
Are really the most
And I'll walk
And they walk
I'll twist
And they twist
And I'll shimmy
And they shimmy
And I'll fly
And they fly
Where they're out there having fun
In the warm California sun
Well, the girls are frisky
In old 'Frisco
A pretty little chick
Wherever you go
And I'll walk
And they walk
I'll twist
And they twist
And I'll shimmy
And they shimmy
And I'll fly
And they fly
Where they're out there having fun
In the warm California sun
Where they're out there having fun
In the warm California sun
