Dani California lyrics

Getting born in the state of Mississippi
Poppa was a Copper and Momma was a Hippie
In Alabama she would swing a hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the Panorama
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the World does your Company take me for?

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana
Robbin' a banks in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her merry way sayin' baby whatcha gonna
Looking down the barrel of a hot metal 45
Just another way to survive

[Chorus:]
California Rest In Peace
Simultaneous Release
California Show me Your Teeth
She's my Priestess, I'm your Priest
yeah yeah yeah

She's a lover, baby and a fighter
Should have seen it coming when I got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya
A little loaded she was stealin' another breath
I love my baby to death

[Chorus]

Who knew the other side of you
Who knew what others died to prove
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true to say, say, say...

Push the fader, gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota
North Dakota man was a gunnin' for the quota
Down in the badlands she was savin' the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh, gone too fast

[Chorus 2x]
