In California (ZT an old poem)
The sky is ever bluest
And friendship is the truest
And enemies the fewest --
In California.
Sunshine is the brightest
Merry hearts are the lightest
And moonbeams are whitest --
In California.
Blue lakes are the clearest
Home-hearts are the dearest
And heaven is the nearest --
In California.
Maidens are the sweetest
Sailboats are the fleetest
And bungalows the neatest --
In California.
Sea-bathing here is funny
The beach is fine and sunny
Ant it's worth your money --
In California.
Grass widows are the tamest
Bachelors the lamest
And Tuna the gamest --
In California.
Lovers are the boldest
Oranges are the goldest
And people live the oldest --
In California.
