Welcome to california son
This is where men are made
Grab yourself a pick and a shovel
If youÂ`ve got the will
WeÂ`ve got the way

In eighteen forty-nine you saw the gold with your own two eyes
You scavenge for something that shines like the son
You ravage through dirt and the greed and the blood
You came for the metals now youÂ`re remembered in stone
You canÂ`t see the sun is going down on you

YouÂ`re a crook youÂ`re a gambler itÂ`s all for their sake
You lost it all you gave them all they could take
DonÂ`t know where you are you donÂ`t know where youÂ`ve been
ItÂ`s a race Â`till your death that youÂ`ll never win
ItÂ`s a place and a time youÂ`re bought and sold
YouÂ`ll see that youÂ`re not worth your weight in gold

Is this your better way
You watch the california sun go sinking down into the bay
Is this your better way
You watch the california sun steal all your dreams away

The saloons and the gambling the xxxxx house hotels
TheyÂ`re lit up all night by their own private hells
Now a broken man so far from his home
It now comes to this he stands drunk and alone
Without a dime to your name or one ounce of fame
ItÂ`s time to die now who do you blame
