I'm California Bound

So where you gals off to with that sax and upright bass?

Well, we're just heading back for our second semester at the Sheboygan Conservatory of Music

Wait, Sheyboygan! I'm offering you twenty bucks a week!

Right here, right now, to join my all-girls band!

Make it twenty-five and we bunk together

Done! What are the odds that we'd find the exact right instruments, in the exact right time, in the exact right place?!

Sometimes it's best not to overthink these things

Tally-ho!

Ladies, meet the new girls who'll be adding some class

We're really au-contraire, it's you that's saving our ass!

I'm Josephine on sax

And girls, I'm Daphne on bass!

But dammit, someone's missing, let me cut to the chase

Well, I told her no booze

And I told her no men

And I have told her she must be on time, again and again

So I am royally pissed, we have to wait by this train

For the always-tardy, party-goer Sugar Cane!

Glad you could join us, Sugar

Cut me some slack, Sue, this is the earliest I've ever been late!

Hey, ladies, all aboard!

Hey, ladies, all aboard!

Hey, ladies, all aboard!

Whether you're running away or you're running toward—

Tell the men of Chicago, I'm hitting the tracks

I'm California-bound!

Tell the boys in the band, Sugar's giving up sax

I'm California-bound!

'Cause I'm safer in the long-run with an all-girl band

And it's time to say adieu to every one-night stand!

Boys, from here on in this gala's strictly no-mans-land!

I'm California-bound! (Tell all the folks in Californ-I-A)

All aboard! (The best in Chi-town is coming your way!)

If we all work as sisters, we simply can't fail

I'm happy to see anything that's not on a male

It's just there's too many men who are hot on our trail

Let's spread some rhythm around and around

San Diego, we'll warn ya'!

We're rhythm and horn, yeah

'Cause we're California—

We're California-bound!

We're California-bound!
