Words by Flora Robertson
("Why We Come to Californy", 1940 Shafter)

Written by Aimee Bobruk & Rene Gummer

Lyrics

Here comes the dust storm
Watch the sky turn blue
You better get out quick
Or it will smother you

Here comes the grasshopper
He comes a jumpin high
He jumps across the state line
And never bats an eye

Californy,
Here I come too
With a coffee pot and a skillet
I’m a-comin’ to you

Here comes the river
It surely knows it’s stuff
It takes home and cattle
and leaves the people feelin’ tough

Californy,
Here I come too
With a coffee pot and a skillet
I’m a-comin’ to you

There’s apples nuts and oranges
And santa claus is real
Come on to California
Eat and eat ‘till you get you’re fill
