A Different Picture

Lazing in the San Diego sunshine
The sidewalk feels so warm beneath my feet
Think I'll take a walk down Thirty Second Avenue
Smile at all the people that I meet

They say that I should go to San Francisco
Maybe wear some flowers in my hair
But I don't want to drive that twelve lane highway
I'd rather take it easy everywhere

Ooh ooh ooh, America
Ooh I'm going back again
Ooh ooh ooh, America
Oh I don't know when

Well I'm standing on this corner here in Winslow
Singing all the Eagles songs I know
People take my picture and I take theirs
We all take a different picture home

Driving out to Prescott, Arizona
One oh three degrees and on the rise
I'll sit out on the porch and drink an ice cold beer
Watch the red sun sinking in the sky

Ooh ooh ooh, America
Ooh I'm going back again
Ooh ooh ooh, America
Oh I don't know when

Took the red eye flight out of Phoenix
Had to be back home just for a while
Many miles away I still remember you all
Every time I think of you I smile

Ooh ooh ooh, America
Ooh I'm going back again
Ooh ooh ooh, America
Oh I don't know when
No I don't know when

Song Info

Inspired by our return visit to America, the places we visited, what we found and how it all felt.

This is the first song written on Jimmy's Taylor 954CE-L7 12-string guitar.
