On my way to sunny California
On my way to spend another sunny day
Water, water
Get yourself in the cool, clear, water
The sun shines brightly down on Penny's place
The sun shines brightly down on the bay
The air so clean it'll just take your mind away
A-take your mind away, take your mind away
Have you ever been South of Monterey?
Barrancas carve the coastline
And the Chaparral flows to the sea
'Neath waves of golden sunshine
And have you ever been North of Morro Bay
The South coast plows the sea
And the people there are of the breed
They don't need electricity
Water, water (get yourself in that)
Cool cascades of clear, clear water (get yourself in that, get yourself in that water)
The sun dance final scene sets the hills ablaze
(Get yourself in that water)
Horizon edges quick up the mountain's way
Up the mountain's way, up the mountain way
Have you ever been down Salinas way
Where Steinbeck found the valley?
And he wrote about it the way it was
In his travelin's with Charley
And have you ever walked down through the sycamores
Where the farmhouse used to be
There the monarch's autumn journey ends
On a windswept cyprus tree
Water (get), water (get yourself in that)
Get yourself in that cool, clear water (get yourself in that, get yourself in that water)
The sun shines brightly down on Penny's place
(Get yourself in that water)
The air so clean that it's just takes your mind away
Takes your mind away, takes your mind away
Have you ever been to a festival
The Big Sur congregation?
Where Country Joe will do his show
And he'd sing about liberty
And the people there in the open air are one big family
Yeah, the people there love to sing and share
Their new found liberty
