California, a prophet on the burning shore
And men gonna light my way
Rainbows and down that highway where ocean breezes blow
Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light
California, I'll be knocking on the golden door
California, preaching on the burning shore
Don't worry about me, no, no, no, don't worry about me, no
Like an angel, standing in a shaft of light
Fire wheel burning in the air
California, I'll be knocking on the golden door
And might and glory gonna be my name
Don't worry about me, no, no, no, don't worry about me, no
Way up, the middle of the air
Seems so long I felt this way and time sure passin' slow
And I'm in no hurry, no, no, no, I know where to go
And I'm in no hurry, nah, nah, nah, I know where to go
My time coming, any day, don't worry about me, no
Rising up to paradise, I know, I'm gonna shine
And my work fills the sky with flame
Seems so long I felt this way and time sure passin' slow
Still I know I lead the way, they tell me where I go
And I'll call down thunder and speak the same
Rising up to paradise, I know I'm gonna shine
You've all been asleep, you would not believe me
My time coming, any day, don't worry about me, no
Don't worry about me, nah, nah, nah, don't worry about me, no
Standin' on the beach, the sea will part before me
It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so
My time coming, any day, don't worry about me, no
Them voices tellin' me, you will soon receive me
It's gonna be just like they say, them voices tell me so
My time coming, voices saying they tell me where to go
You will follow me and we will ride to glory
