SUMMER CLASSICS-3: meaning and examples

Good morning again!

Today we continue with another classic summer song by the Beach Boys, this time from 1965: California Girls. It is believed that Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys member who wrote the song together with Mike Love, conceived the song when high on LSD.

"California Girls" The Beach Boys
(Brian Wilson & Mike Love)

You can listen to the song and see the lyrics at the following YouTube link:

Well East coast girls are hip
I really dig those styles they wear
And the Southern girls with the way they talk
They knock me out when I'm down there

The Mid-West farmer's daughters really make you feel alright
And the Northern girls with the way they kiss
They keep their boyfriends warm at night

I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls

The West coast has the sunshine
And the girls all get so tanned
I dig a french bikini on Hawaii island
Dolls by a palm tree in the sand

I been all around this great big world
And I seen all kinds of girls
Yeah, but I couldn't wait to get back in the states
Back to the cutest girls in the world

I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California
I wish they all could be California girls

I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)
I wish they all could be California
(Girls, girls, girls yeah I dig the)



I'll see you tomorrow with one final summer song!

Have a great day!
