The Decemberists Follow

Take a long drive with me

on California one, on California one

Take a long drive with me

on California one, on California one

And the road a-winding goes

from golden gate to roaring cliff-side

and the light is softly low as our hearts become sweetly untied

beneath the sun of California one

Take a long drown with me

of California wine, of California wine

Take a long drown with me

of California wine, of California wine

And the wine it tastes so sweet

as we lay our eyes to wander

and the sky, it stretches deep

Will we rest our heads to slumber

beneath the vines of California wine?

Beneath the sun of California one

Annabelle lies, sleeps with quiet eyes

on this sea-drift sun

What can you do?

And if I said, Oh it's in your head

on this sea-drift sun

What can you do?

We're calling all bed wetters and ambulance chasers

Poor pick-pockets, bring 'em in

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

We're lining up the light-loafered

and the bored bench warmers

Castaways and cutouts, fill it up

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

Nothing will stand in our way

I figured I had paid my debt to society

by paying my overdue fines at the Multnomah county library, at the library

They said, 'Son, go join up

Go join the youth and beauty brigade'

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

Come join the youth and beauty brigade

Nothing will stand in our way...
