John Stewart Gold

When the lights go down
In the California town
People are in for the evening

I jump into my car and
I throw in my guitar
My heart beating time
With the breathing

[CHORUS]
Driving over Kanan
Singing to my soul
There's people out there
Turnin' music into gold

My buddy Tim Bass
He's a-working pumping gas
And he makes two fifty for an hour

He's got rhythm in his hands
As he's tapping on the cans
Sings rock and roll in the shower

Driving over Kanan
Singing to his soul
There's people out there
Turnin' music into gold

Oh, California girls are
The greatest in the world
Each one a song in the making
Singing right to me
I can hear the melody
The story is there for the taking

[repeat CHORUS 2x]

When the lights go down
In the California town
People are in for the evening

I jump into my car and
I throw in my guitar
My heart beating time
With the breathing

[repeat CHORUS]

Flying over Kanan
Singing to my soul
People out there
Turnin' music into gold

People out there
Turnin' music into gold
People out there
Turnin' music into gold
Ooh, yeah

People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold
People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold
People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold
People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold

Rockin' on the radio
People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold

Slippin' down the back road
People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold

People out there
Turnin' music into gold, into gold
