I was born in LA
By the ocean with the breeze
Never saw no reason to leave
Down on Sunset Boulevard
Stay up 'til the morning with my friends
Then I'd sleep an hour or two
Head up to my job, it seems they never lasted too long
When I got a little older
I could see the world was changing, just like me
All around there's too many people everywhere
Just a crowd, it's too loud
When I was traveling around the world always missing home
Finally realized maybe now it's time to go
Everything had changed, I felt so alone
So I packed up all my bags
Started down a very lonely road
Time to leave my home
Searching for a new place
That I could call my own
I was riding in the desert on my old horse
A bottle of whiskey to keep me company
Along the way 'cause I knew
It would take some time to get to Santa Fe
Out into the desert
Someone told me there's a place far away
So if you're looking for me
Maybe you might find me in a place called Santa Fe
Oh, Santa Fe
I need to find a place to get away
Oh, Santa Fe
Far away, in Santa Fe
Will I find some peace of mind?
Hope it's not too far away
To find my way
Santa Fe
