San Franciscan Nights Lyrics By Eric Burdon The Animals

    spoken to the sounds of the dragnet theme

    this following program is dedicated to the city and people of san francisco who may not know it but they are beautiful and so is their city this is a very personal song so if the viewer cannot understand it particularly those of you who are european residents save up all your bread and fly translove airways to san francisco usa then maybe youll understand the song it will be worth it if not for the sake of this song but for the sake of your own peace of mind

    strobe light beam creates dreams
    walls move minds do too
    on a warm san franciscan night

    old child young child
    feel all right

    on a warm san franciscan night
    angels sing leather wings
    jeans of blue harley davidson’s too
    on a warm san franciscan night

    old angel young angel
    feel all right
    on a warm san franciscan night

    i wasn’t born there
    perhaps i’ll die there
    there’s no place left to go
    san francisco

    cops face is filled with hate
    heavens above
    he’s on a street called love
    when will they ever learn
    old cop young cop
    feel all right
    on a warm san franciscan night

    the children are cool
    they don’t raise fools
    it’s an american dream
    includes indians too
