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