Music Monday-
This meme was created by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek. You pick a song that you really like and share it on Monday.
Last time I shared: Music from Into The Spider Verse
This week’s share:
Led Zeppelin “Going To California”
I’ve always loved Zeppelin. This song popped into my mind the moment my oldest son informed me that he’d be going to California, and since it’s happening this week, I decided to share it. Hope you enjoy.
Lyrics:
Spent my days with a woman unkind
Smoked my stuff and drank all my wine
Made up my mind to make a new start
Going to California with an aching in my heart
Someone told me there’s a girl out there
With love in her eyes and flowers in her hair
Took my chances on a big jet plane
Never let them tell you that they’re all the same
The sea was red and the sky was grey
Wondered how tomorrow could ever follow today
Mountains and the canyons start to tremble and shake
The children of the sun begin to awake
Watch out
Seems that the wrath
Of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose
And it started to flow
I think I might be sinking
Throw me a line
If I reach it in time
I’ll meet you up there
Where the path runs straight
And high
To find a queen without a king
They say she plays guitar and cries and sings
Ride a white mare in the footsteps of dawn
Tryin’ to find a woman who’s never, never, never been born
Standing on a hill in the mountain of dreams
Telling myself it’s not as hard, hard, hard as it seems
Have a wonderful week, everyone. 😉

Thank you so much, Mackey! Alison Krauss has such a beautiful voice, doesn’t she? I can still remember hearing her for the first time. My husband grew up listening to country and he introduced me to her. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. 😉

I love this song, but I never knew what the title was. Zeppelin was my teen music. Great choice.
