Charlie Robison - El Cerrito Place Lyrics
I been hangin' round this place, I been lookin' through your spaceI been waitin' for you, I've been waitin' for youAll the places you would go, all the people that you knowI've been lookin' for you, I've been lookin' for youAnd all them pretty people up on El Cerrito PlaceThey all got somethin' in their pockets, all got somethin' on their faceThey roll down to La Brea where it meets the boulevardSingin' hallelujah while they dance over the starsThey all think they're goin' farChorus:Me I've been lookin' for you baby, I've been lookin' for you babyI've been lookin' for you baby, I've been lookin' for you babyAll night long, all night long, all night longSomebody said they might have seen you where the ocean meets the landSo I've been out here all night lookin' for your footprints in the sandDid you hear the ocean singing, baby did you sing alongAs you danced over the water to some ol' forgotten song,Were you even here at all?Me I've been lookin' for you baby, I've been lookin' for you babyI've been lookin' for you baby, I've been lookin' for you babyAll night long, all night long, all night longSomehow I wound up in the desert just after daylightThere's a Joshua Tree grows that little place you always likedThese pioneer town people they ain't got too much to sayand if they might have seen you they ain't givin' you awayNow it's been two daysMe I've been lookin' for you baby, I've been lookin' for you babyI've been lookin' for you baby, I've been lookin' for you babyAll night long, all night long, all night longI think I'll go back to the city, back to El Cerrito PlaceThat's the last time I saw that pretty smile upon your faceI've been lookin' for you baby
