Do You Know The Way To San José Lyrics By Dionne Warwick

    do you know the way to san jose
    ive been away so long
    i may go wrong and lose my way
    do you know the way to san jose
    im going back to find
    some peace of mind in san jose

    la is a great big freeway
    put a hundred down and buy a car
    in a week maybe two
    theyll make you a star
    weeks turn into years how quick they pass
    and all the stars that never were
    are parking cars and pumping gas

    you can really breathe in san jose
    theyve got a lot of space
    therell be a place where i can stay
    i was born and raised in san jose
    im going back to find
    some peace of mind in san jose

    fame and fortune is a magnet
    it can pull you far away from home
    with a dream in your heart youre never alone
    dreams turn into dust and blow away
    and there you are without a friend
    you pack your car and ride away

    ive got lots of friends in san jose
    do you know the way to san jose

    oh la is a great big freeway
    put a hundred down and buy a car
    in a week maybe two
    theyll make you a star
    weeks turn into years how quick they pass
    and all the stars that never were
    are parking cars and pumping gas
    ive got lots of friends in san jose
    oh do you know the way to san jose
    hmm cant wait to get back to san jose
