Chewing on a piece of grass walking down the road

Tell me, how long you gonna stay here, Joe?

Some people say this town don't look good in snow

You don't care, I know

Ventura Highway in the sunshine

Where the days are longer, the nights are stronger than moonshine

You're gonna go I know

'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair

And the days surround your daylight there

Seasons crying no despair

Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

Did di di di dit ...

Wishin' on a falling star waitin' for the early train

Sorry boy, but I've been hit by purple rain

Aw, come on, Joe, you can always change your name

Thanks a lot, son, just the same

Ventura Highway in the sunshine

Where the days are longer, the nights are stronger than moonshine

You're gonna go I know

'Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair

And the days surround your daylight there

Seasons crying no despair

Alligator lizards in the air, in the air

Did di di di dit ...
