Chewing on a piece of grassWalking down the roadTell me, how long you gonna stay here Joe?Some people say this town don't lookGood in snowYou don't care, I know
Ventura highway in the sunshineWhere the days are longerThe nights are strongerThan moonshineYou're gonna go I know'Cause the free wind is blowing throughYour hairAnd the days surround your daylightThereSeasons crying no despairAlligator lizards in the air
Wishin' on a falling starWatchin' for the early trainSorry boy, but I've been hit byPurple rainAw, come on Joe, you can alwaysChange your nameThanks a lot son, just the same
Ventura highwayWhere the days are longerThe nights are strongerThan moonshineYou're gonna go I know'Cause the free wind is blowin' throughYour hairAnd the days surround you daylightThereSeasons crying no despairAlligator lizards in the air
