[Verse:]
|
I've a longing to go
|
Where the oranges grow
|
I know a cozy nest
|
'Way out west
|
And I miss it so
|
California my own
|
Oh how lonely I've grown
|
That's why I'm on the run
|
To the one
|
I left there all alone
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
Arm in arm we will rove
|
Thro' a sweet orange grove
|
Far away in California
|
|
Like a bird I mean to fly west again
|
And I'll hold her close to my breast again
|
|
When the blossoms unfold
|
And the green turns to gold
|
Some fine day in California
|
|
You'll see a happy girlie and a happy fellow
|
'Mid the fields of yellow
|
In an orange grove
|
|
