Below, you will find the lyrics for Dani California by Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Verse 1
Getting born in the state of Mississippi
Papa was a copper and mama was a hippie
In Alabama she would swing a hammer
Price you gotta pay when you break the panorama
Chorus 1
She never knew that there was anything more than poor
What in the world does your company take me for
Verse 2
Black bandanna, sweet Louisiana
Robbing on a bank in the state of Indiana
She's a runner, rebel and a stunner
On her merry way saying baby whatcha gonna
Chorus 2
Looking down the barrel of a hot metal forty five
Just another way to survive
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah
Verse 3
She's a lover baby and a fighter
Shoulda seen it coming when it got a little brighter
With a name like Dani California
The day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya
Chorus 3
A little loaded she was stealing another breath
I love my baby to death
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah
Bridge
Who knew the other side of you?
Who knew that others died to prove
Too true to say goodbye to you
Too true, too sad sad sad
Verse 4
Push the fader gifted animator
One for the now and eleven for the later
Never made it up to Minnesota
North Dakota man was a gunning for the quota
Chorus 4
Down in the badlands she was savin' the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah
Chorus 4
California rest in peace
Simultaneous release
California show your teeth
She's my priestess, I'm your priest
Yeah, yeah
