L.A. is a great big freeway
You pack your car and ride away
I've got lots of friends in San Jose
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
I was born and raised in San Jose
I may go wrong and lose my way
It can pull you far away from home
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose
Are parking cars and pumping gas
Do you know the way to San Jose?
They've got a lot of space
With a dream in your heart you're never alone
You can really breathe in San Jose
Weeks turn into years, how quick they pass
Put a hundred down and buy a car
Are parking cars and pumping gas
There'll be a place where I can stay
Weeks turn into years, how quick they pass
Do you know the way to San Jose?
L.A. is a great big freeway
And all the stars that never were
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Fame and fortune is a magnet
Dreams turn into dust and blow away
Put a hundred down and buy a car
And all the stars that never were
And there you are without a friend
I've got lots of friends in San Jose
