All the gold in California

Is in the bank in the middle of Beverly Hills

In somebody else's name

So if you're dreamin' about California

It don't matter at all where you played before

California's a brand-new game

Tryin' to be a hero, widing up a zero

Can scar a man forever right down to your soul

Living on the spotlight can kill a man outright

'Cause everything that glitters is not gold

All the gold in California

In in the bank in the middle of Beverly Hills

In somebody else's name

So if you're dreamin' about California

It don't matter at all where you've played before

California's a brand-new game
