Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads for a pint of gold
[Verse 2]
I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads for a pint of gold
L'America, L'America, L'America
L'America, L'America, L'America
[Verse 3]
Come on people, don't you look so down
You know the rain man's coming to town
And change your weather, change your luck
And then he'll teach you how to find yourself
L'America
[Verse 4]
Friendly strangers came to town
All the people put them down
But the women loved their ways
Come again some other day
Like the gentle rain
Like the gentle rain
That falls
[Verse 5]
I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads for a pint of gold
I took a trip down to L'America
To trade some beads for a pint of gold
L'America, L'America, L'America
L'America, L'America, L'America
L'America
Written by: Jim Morrison
