papas and mamas - california dreamin (rock lent) 1966 @@@
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreamin
California Dreamin' est une chanson du groupe The Mamas & the Papas, commercialisée en single en décembre 1965 ; une version enregistrée précédemment avec Barry McGuire cette même année figure sur son album This Precious Time paru en janvier 19661.
Le solo de flûte est dû au saxophoniste, flûtiste de jazz Bud Shank.
En 2003, ce titre figure en 89e position Les 500 plus grandes chansons de tous les temps.
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)
I've been for a walk (I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day (on a winter's day)
I'd be safe and warm (I'd be safe and warm)
If I was in L.A. (if I was in L.A.)
California dreamin' (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
Stopped into a church
I passed along the way
Well, I got down on my knees (got down on my knees)
And I pretend to pray (I pretend to pray)
You know the preacher like the cold (preacher like the cold)
He knows I'm gonna stay (knows I'm gonna stay)
California dreamin' (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown (all the leaves are brown)
And the sky is grey (and the sky is grey)
I've been for a walk (I've been for a walk)
On a winter's day (on a winter's day)
If I didn't tell her (if I didn't tell her)
I could leave today (I could leave today)
California dreamin' (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day (California dreamin')
On such a winter's day
