Getting born in the state of Mississippi
Papa was a copper and mama was a hippie
In Alabama she was swinging hammer
Price you gotta pay when you pick the panarama
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the world? What does your confidant take me for?

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana
Robbing on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
Coming everyway saying baby whatcha gonna
Looking down the barrel of a hop and a forty five

Just another way to survive

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest

She's a lover baby and a fighter
Should of seen her coming when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Devils gonna come but I was gonna warn ya
A little loaded, she was stealing another breath
I love my baby to death

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest

Who knew the other side of you?
Who knew that all this tired to prove
Too true to say good bye to you
Too true to say say say..

Was the baiter gifted and a made her
One for the now and eleven for the later

Never made it up to Mineesota
North Dakota man was a gunning for the quota

Down in the valley she was saving the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gon' too fast..

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release,
California show your teeth,
She's my priestess, I'm your priest

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release,
California show your teeth,
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
