I Still Love You, San Francisco

from Alta California by The Soft White Sixties

/

lyrics

I can’t forget
The intoxicating scent
Of Eucalyptus leaves
Wafting in the breeze

I can’t forget
The raising of the rent
trading out Sabella’s
For an Applebee’s

Now for a while
You’ve lost your style
Where did it go

You don’t believe
I'm gonna leave
I'm out the door

I still recall
Romona finally booked us
At the Bottom of the Hill
On a Monday night

Jazz cigarettes
And powdering our noses
In the back seat of the van
Before we loaded in

Now for a while
You’ve lost your style
Where did it go

You don’t believe
I'm gonna leave
I'm out the door

I still love you, San Francisco
I still love you, San Francisco
Though now I am an Angeleno
I still love you

Jack Kerouac
Drinking Fernet
With all the other hispsters
At Visuvio

Now in the Haight
Try to find an artist
Who doesn’t get their funding
From rich relatives

Now for a while
You’ve lost your style
Where did it go

You don’t believe
I'm gonna leave
I'm out the door

I still love you, San Francisco
I still love you, San Francisco
Though now I am an Angeleno
I still love you
