Gene Autry

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A man named Gene's got a beautiful voice He carries me home on his beautiful horse And where she waits, I will ride, ride, ride Come on stranger, just sing me a song And if it's sad, I'll sing along, long, long I told you I knew every word [Pre-Chorus] When I get to California, gonna write my name in the sand I'm gonna lay this body down, and watch the waves roll in And when the city spreads out just like a cut vein [Chorus] Everybody drowns sad and lonely Well, everybody drowns sad and lonely Well, everybody drowns sad and lonely, alright [Verse 2] Sweet, sweet dreams in color and sound Highways in the faraway to be found I saw gold mines in the sky, sky, sky They were clouds just waiting to cry And with the wind, I'm dancing drift, drift, drift In the shapes of the place that I miss [Pre-Chorus] When I get to California, gonna write my name in the sand I'm gonna lay this body down, and watch the waves roll in I'm gonna rest this weary head on someone who I think will care But when the stars in the sky start falling, I think you'll understand That the city spreads out just like a cut vein [Chorus] Everybody drowns, sad and lonely Well everybody drowns, sad and lonely Well everybody drowns, sad and lonely, alright [Bridge] Yeah, I'm waiting for something to give Well, I'm waiting, I hope it's not me Yeah, I'm waiting for something to give Yeah, I'm waiting
