3rd new song of the day: Way Out California Way - an Eagles like Vibe to it.

This could be an Eagles sounding like song. Do you think so too?


Way Out California Way
( by Carman Keddy, May7-8th*, 2009 - completed it all a wee past midnight )

Under this most delectable red setting sun
that's where we finally belong
sitting pretty under a shady oak tree
that's when our souls became free
oh from our long weary journey here
swinging our bare feet
just shooting the airy breeze
caressing across our cheeks
and holding hands so innocently
laughing smiling just being giddy
oh like children carefree again

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get..
headed way out California way

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get..
headed way out California way..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get..
headed way out California way..

Out on the freeway looked out my rear view mirror
leaving New York hustle and it's canyons of steel behind
dipped down south right on by Tennessee's charm
Outta Arkansas past Oklahoma and Kansas too
over departed ground where once the Anasazi ran
passed over the mighty and strong Colorado
may it always run wild and free...
beyond the Grand Canyon's steep steep walls
past plains echoing Apache crys long gone now
through dry ole dusty Death Valley, it's solitude
watching the wind witherered bones pass by, ..we..
headed way out California way.

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way..

Way out way out California way
amid the olive groves and swaying palm trees
just whistling a big howdy de do
to the big ole western sky so blue
our footprints left cast in the wet oozing sand
on the sandy foot of the wide wide Pacific
idlely watching the tanned surfers ride
along the big oceans waves,
right along to their nivana they fade away..

..under the most incredible red setting sun..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get..
headed way out California way.

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way (.. ay, ay.. )

Under this most delectable red setting sun
that's where we finally belong
sitting pretty under a shady oak tree
that's when our souls became free
oh from our long weary journey here
swinging our bare tingling feet
just shooting the airy breeze
caressing across our cheeks
and holding hands so innocently
laughing smiling just being giddy
oh like children carefree again

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way..

Oh why did it take us so long, ..to get ..
headed way out California way.

But baby now we're here
way out California way...

Way out California way
way out Cailifornia way
way out California way...
