A Day In Santa Cruz

A Day In Santa Cruz

if i had a million dollars
i could leave Santa Cruz
if i had a million dollars
i´d have a million to lose

never had much money
never had much sense
don´t think much ´bout the future
the past is my defense

(chorus)
take me to the river
it´s time for me to die
let the waters carry me away
and bury me where I lie
take me to the river
and face me towards the sky
let the waters carry me away
´cause the cost of this livin's´ too high

i had me a young man once
and i was his girl
we never had all that much
we never found our pearl

one thing happened and then another
he said his hopes ran dry
but i know he really cared for me
´cause he woke me up to say goodbye

(chorus)
