Chewin' on a piece of grass walkin' 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 day surround your daylight there

Seasons cryin' no despair

Alligator lizards in the air



Wishin' on a fallin' star

Watchin' 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 alot 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 cryin' no despair

Alligator lizards in the air

in the air
