California Soul

Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear
But you can't forget
From sundown to sunset

It's all in the air
You hear it everywhere
No matter what you do
It's gonna grab a hold on you

California soul, california soul

They say the sun comes up every morning
And if you listen oh so carefully
The winds that ride on the high time
Whistles a melody
So the people started to sing
And that's how the surf gave birth untold
To california soul, california soul

When you hear the beat
You wanna pat your feet
And you've got to move
'Cause it's really such a groove

Puts a brand new kind
Of thinkin' in your mind
And you can't go wrong
'Cause you're grooving all day long

California soul, california soul

They had the melody and the beat
But still didn't seem complete, yes
Until they saw two lovers kissing
They knew just what was missing
So happy they were rocking and reeling
Because they had added that loving feeling
To california soul, california soul

Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear
