Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, tell me where it all went wrong
And tell me where you lost those damn songs
I can't say I was surprised
Well, I heard a drink was involved
[Verse 2]
Oh, you gotta be, oh, you gotta be
Still living by the sea
Oh, you gotta be, oh, you gotta be
[Verse 3]
'Cause Santa Cruz, you're not that far (No, you're not that far)
Oh, Santa Cruz, no, you're not that far (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Santa Cruz, Santa
Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz, no, you're not that far
[Verse 4]
But now and then, hey, once in a while
Those August cowboys stole your style
Don't you know he feels blind?
Well, your train's just rolled in on time
[Verse 5]
Oh, you gotta be, oh, you gotta be
Still living by the sea
Oh, you gotta be, oh, you gotta be
[Verse 6]
'Cause Santa Cruz, you're not that far (No, you're not that far)
Oh, Santa Cruz, no, you're not that far (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Santa Cruz, Santa
Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz, no, you're not that far
[Verse 7]
Oh, you gotta be, oh, you gotta be
'Cause Santa Cruz, you're not that far (No, you're not that far)
Oh, Santa Cruz, no, you're not that far (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Santa Cruz, Santa
Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz
Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz
Aw, Santa Cruz
Santa Cruz
Santa Cruz
Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz
Oh, Santa Cruz
