California Dreamin’ Lyrics By The Mamas The Papas

    all the leaves are brown all the leaves are brown
    and the sky is gray and the sky is gray
    i’ve been for a walk i’ve been for a walk
    on a winter’s day on a winter’s day
    i’d be safe and warm i’d be safe and warm
    if i was in la if i was in la
    california dreamin’ california dreamin’
    on such a winter’s day

    verse
    stopped in to a church
    i passed along the way
    well i got down on my knees got down on my knees
    and i pretend to pray i pretend to pray
    you know the preacher likes the cold preacher likes the cold
    he knows i’m gonna stay knows i’m gonna stay
    california dreamin’ california dreamin’
    on such a winter’s day

    flute

    all the leaves are brown all the leaves are brown
    and the sky is gray and the sky is gray
    i’ve been for a walk i’ve been for a walk
    on a winter’s day on a winter’s day
    if i didn’t tell her if i didn’t tell her
    i could leave today i could leave today
    california dreamin’ california dreamin’
    on such a winter’s day california dreamin’
    on such a winter’s day california dreamin’
    on such a winter’s day
