Paroles
Back in California People are kind of used to the bright lights and the freeway traffic But I think they probably forget that a good portion of that state Is the same as it was when the first settlers arrived many years ago (Sadly) We think a good example of this is the Big Sur area of the Monterey peninsula Where in the back hills or barrancas as the Spanish called them There are still little signs of civilization And mountain lions are still in evidence *low guitar chord* Say that again *low guitar chord* Groovy lion (Heh-heh-heh) (Toothless, auntie lion) Anyway we think the next song could just as well have been written yesterday as it really was 150 years ago It's called "South Coast" South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely You may win at a game at Jolon But the lion still rules the barranca And a man there is always alone My name is Juan Jaro de Castro My father was a Spanish grandee But I won my wife in a card game To Hell with the lords o'er the sea I picked up the ace, I had won her My heart, which was down at my feet Jumped up to my throat in a hurry Like a warm summer's day she was sweet South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely You may win at a game at Jolon But the lion still rules the barranca And a man there is always alone Her arms had to tighten around me As we rode up the hills from the South Not a word did I hear from her that day Or a kiss from her pretty red mouth We came to my cabin at twilight The stars twinkled out on the coast She soon loved the valley, the orchard But I knew that she loved me the most South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely You may win at a game at Jolon But the lion still rules the barranca And a man there is always alone Then I got hurt in a landslide With crushed hip and twice-broken bone She saddled our pony like lightnin' Rode off in the night all alone The lion screamed in the barranca The pony fell back on the slide My young wife lay dead in the moonlight My heart died that night with my bride South Coast, the wild coast, is lonely You may win at a game at Jolon But the lion still rules the barranca And a man there is always alone And a man there is always alone Thank you Thank you very much
