lyrics

The crucifix is dangling from her gold chain
Its June 26th, her birthday. She's on her way.
She served her time at St. Marys with Sister Bernadette
She's had her fill of New Jersey and the Old Testament

Now San Francisco calls her name.

Get out of her way its Kathy's Kalifornia now.
Its Kathy's Kalifornia now.
Get out of her way its Kathy's Kalifornia now.
Its Kathy's Kalifornia now.

She cables down the hill sets up her easel and starts to paint
a landscape of St. Paul and Peter and the Golden Gate.

No gallery will show her work

Chorus

I heard she's waiting tables at some bar on Market Street
and memories of New Jersey suddenly seem bittersweet.
She believes that she can make it if she sticks it out.
But its been a year of loneliness, frustration, and doubt.

Chorus
