Golden Grass

Down in a San Francisco Holler

The songs echo through the cypress trees

Golden highway stretches out forever

And the sun slowly sinks into the sea

Way out west we do it differently

Untraditionally

We just like the sound

Are you listening?

We just burn one down

Can you’ll feel it?

Just relax

It’s golden grass

Ain’t no blues when you’re standing on the summit

Of a snow clad California peak

Buttered rum warms up your belly

While the poor men drink their whiskey

We don’t mind if you do it differently

Just take it at the pace it wants to be

We just like the sound

Are you listening?

We just burn one down

Can you’ll feel it?

Just relax

It’s golden grass

If I’m ever in the way and getting old

Just give me some California gold

On a windy hill we’ll sing some harmony

We’ll take it where the music wants to be

My grass is golden…

We just like the sound

Are you listening?

We just burn one down

Can you’ll feel it?

Just relax

It’s golden grass
