Rivers, Johnny - Going Back To Big Sur Lyrics
It's a cold and rainy Friday night
City life's got me all uptight
My mind keeps wandering far away
Vibrations tell me it's time to leave L.A.
Wish I could leave today
I want to walk beneath those Redwood trees
Just south of Monterey
A little cabin, quiet and alone
No television and no telephone
Water trickling down this little stream
Makes you wonder, is it all just a dream?
Going back to Big Sur
Going back and straighten out my head
Just south of Monterey
Gentle people all around
Never try to put you down
Makes you feel like someone new
And they don't care who you are or what you do
Guess I'll drive up highway
I dig the ocean, kiss the setting sun
The stars dancing in the sky
Sort of puts you on a natural high
And that girl

Very evocative song and treatment! Not heard it before, now it haunts!
Used to listen to this back in my hippier days but just forgot about it in the intervening years. Good to hear it again.
Great song, on an amazing LP, "Realization" by the GREAT Johnny Rivers. I can listen to him all day!

Half~way through your video I seriously wanted to hit the highway & drive " just south of Monterey ". Thanks a million for sharing, Jack ! : )
Cheers from Vancouver, B.C. !
