Ten Silver Slide Trombones

When you say good-bye to California
Could I follow you?
Could I follow you then?
Could I reach you then?
When you say good-bye to California
And eternal Spring
Good-bye eternal Spring and every little thing
And every little thing
And I think of you with ten silver slide trombones
And I think of you with ten silver slide trombones
Merle Haggard’s playing on the radio
The songs of Bakersfield
And you’re already far away
When you say good-bye to California
What’s the world coming to?
When you say good-bye to California
What’s the world coming to?
What’s the world coming to?
