California Zephyr Songtext
From the great salt lakes of Utah
To California's golden shore
Colorado and Nevada
Through the desert's burning door
While she's circling through the canyons
Can't you see that mountain stream?
It's a California Zephyr
A Union Pacific queen
See her rocking, see her rolling
As she rambles on her way
She left L.A. this morning
Burning up the right-of-way
In the distant sheer morning
Hear her lonesome whistle scream
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific queen
She leaves the city of the angels
Heading for old Santa Fe
She's making not, she's making time
Just watch her swing and sway
From way out in the darkness
See that headlight gleam
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific queen
From the great salt lakes of Utah
To California's golden shore
Colorado and Nevada
Through the desert's burning door
While she's circling through the canyons
Can't you see that mountain stream?
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific queen
To California's golden shore
Colorado and Nevada
Through the desert's burning door
While she's circling through the canyons
Can't you see that mountain stream?
It's a California Zephyr
A Union Pacific queen
See her rocking, see her rolling
As she rambles on her way
She left L.A. this morning
Burning up the right-of-way
In the distant sheer morning
Hear her lonesome whistle scream
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific queen
She leaves the city of the angels
Heading for old Santa Fe
She's making not, she's making time
Just watch her swing and sway
From way out in the darkness
See that headlight gleam
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific queen
From the great salt lakes of Utah
To California's golden shore
Colorado and Nevada
Through the desert's burning door
While she's circling through the canyons
Can't you see that mountain stream?
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific queen
