Going  to a party, meet me on after school.
 Well, we're going  to a place where the jive
 is really cool.
And  if the band stops playing there's a jukebox
 in the hall.
 Well, with your blue  dress on and your folks all gone..
 you'll sure  give the guys a ba..ll.
 Get that real  guitar boy shakin'..I'm  a California man.
Dance  right on till the floors are breakin'..I'm  a
 California man.
 Well, I cross  my Mamma so bad..and this woman,  she's
 making me mad..so,  I don't care if your legs start aching..
I'm  a California man.
Oh,  my legs start to shiver when I hear you call my name.
 Well, my knees  keep a-knocking and I'm feeling tired bugs
 me down.
And  when we take off fine and my jeans are way down low..
 when I waggle  my hips it's making me feel like the
king  of rock 'n' ro...ll.
 Get that real  guitar boy shakin'..I'm  a California man.
Dance  right on till the floors are breakin'..I'm  a
 California man.
 Well, I cross  my Mamma so bad..and this woman,  she's
 making me mad..so,  I don't care if your legs start aching..
I'm  a California man..I'm  a California man.
