Lyrics
The people 19611,-19)came and listened

Some of them came and played

Others gave flowers away

Yes they did

Down in Monterey

Down in Monterey

Young Gods smiled upon the crowd

Their music being born of love

Children danced night and day

Religion was being born

Down in Monterey

The birds and the airplane did fly

Oh Ravi Shankar's music made me cry

The Who exploded into fire and light

Hugh Masekela's music was black as night

The Grateful Dead

Blew everybody's mind

Jimi Hendrix baby

Believe me set the world on fire yeah

His Majesty Prince Jones smiled

As he moved among the crowd

Ten thousand electric guitars

Were groovin' real loud yeah

You wanna 126591,-169)find the truth in life

Don't pass music by

And you know I would not lie

No I would not lie no I would not lie

Down in Monterey

Alright

Three days of understanding

Of moving with one another

Even the cops grooved with us

Do you believe me yeah

Down in Monterey

Down in Monterey yeah

Down in Monterey

Down in Monterey yeah

I think that maybe I'm dreamin'

Monterey

Monterey yeah

Down in Monterey

Did you hear what I said

Down in Monterey

Down in Monterey

I said Monterey Monterey Monterey

Yeah yeah
