[Verse 1]
The redtail hawk writes songs across the sky
There's music in the waters flowing by
And you can hear a song each time the wind sighs
[Refrain]
In the golden rolling hills of California
In the golden rolling hills of California
[Verse 2]
It's been so long, love, since you said goodbye
My cabin's been as lonesome as a cry
There's comfort in the clouds drifting by
[Refrain]
In the golden rolling hills of California
In the golden rolling hills of California
[Verse 3]
Yes, a neighbour came today to lend a hand
He saw I'd fixed the road as best as I can
There's just some things that need a man's hand
[Refrain]
In the golden rolling hills of California
In the golden rolling hills of California
[Verse 4]
The redtail hawk writes songs across the sky
There's music in the waters flowing by
And you can hear a song each time the wind sighs
[Refrain]
In the golden rolling hills of California
In the golden rolling hills of California
