California Stars Lyrics

Words by Woody Guthrie

I'd like to rest
my heavy head tonight
On a bed
of California stars
I'd like to lay
my weary bones tonight
On a bed
of California stars

I'd love to feel
your hand touching mine
And tell me why
i must keep working on
Yes, I'd give my life
to lay my head tonight
On a bed of California stars
I'd like to dream
my troubles all away
On a bed of California stars
Jump up from my starbed and make another day
Underneath my
California stars
They hang like grapes
on vines that shine
And warm the lovers glass
like friendly wine
So, I'd give this world just
to dream a dream with you
On our bed of California stars
