Dani California lyrics

Gettin' born in the state of Mississippi
Poppa was a copper and her momma was a hippie
In Alabama she was swinging hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the world does your company take me for?

Black bandana, sweet Louisiana
Robbin' on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her merry way saying baby what you gonna
Lookin' down the barrel of a hot metal .45
Just another way to survive

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

She's a lover, baby and a fighter
Should've seen her coming when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya
A little loaded she was stealing another breath
I love my baby to death

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

Who knew the other side of you?
Who knew what others died to prove?
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true, too sad sad sad

Push the fader, gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota
North Dakota man was a gunnin' for the quota
Down in the badlands she was saving the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah

    i absolutely LOVE this song..i think if i ever have a baby girl i name it dani california..lol btw to all those that said this song sucks..go fuck urself, get ur head out of ur ass, and learn a minuute amout ab music bc whatever ur listening to now must just be farts from ur ass making off beat rythmn..:) oh btw, "i have a question" that means she could prolly draw or maybe just wore faded jeans and liked 2 draw..and the "1 for no 11 for later" part means she prolly had some pills or something and had 12, took 1 and saved the rest for later..

    One for the now and eleven for the later", what does he mean by this?

    In the third verse the lyric is:
    With a name like Dani California,
    Day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya,
    A little loaded she was stealing another breath...

    He's singing about a girl who died (presumably of a drug overdose).

    This song is very populare in Russia! I haven't heard the whole album but I think all songs are as good as this

  • Jizzmo 0 points

    awesome song...good job on the lyrics

    but at the end of the first verse i believe it is...

    "Staring down the barrel of a HOT METAL .45"

    this logically makes sense but grat job other than that
