Mendocino

In a hot and sultry summer
On my way to Mendocino
Well I got my lucky number
When I drank a capuccino
There she was and I thought maybe
She is a hitch-hike baby
And before I found her out
She was riding next to me
But soon the night was falling
And I took her out to dance

Oh I fell in love in Mendocino
In the Californian sun
Oh I lost my heart in Mendocino
Days of love and having fun
Memories of you, don't know what to do
Change your mind and come back to me
I was only seventeen still
Young and rather giddy
Not so silly no, nor green
No not a chicka-biddy
Took a chance but I was shakin', oh boy
My heart was breaking
Then I pulled myself together
When he said: come with me
But soon the night was falling
And he took me out to dance

Oh I fell in love in Mendocino
In the Californian sun
Oh I lost my heart in Mendocino
Days of love and having fun
Memories of you, don't know what to do
Change your mind and come back to me

Oh I fell in love in Mendocino
In the Californian sun
Oh I lost my heart in Mendocino
Days of love and having fun
Memories of you, don't know what to do
Change your mind and come back to me
