Mamas & The Papas

Mamas & The Papas - Creeque Alley lyrics

John and mitchie were gettin' kinda itchie

Just to leave the folk music behind

Zal and denny workin' for a penny

Tryin' to get a fish on the line

In a coffee house sebastian sat

And after every number they passed the hat

Mcguinn and mcguire just are gettin' higher

In l.a. you know where that's at

And no one's getting fat except mama cass.

Zallie said 'dennyyou know there aren't many

Who can sing a song the way that you do' (let's go south)

Denny said 'zalliegollydon't you think that I wish

I could play guitar like you'

Zaldenny and sebastian sat (at the night owl)

And after every number they passed the hat

Mcguinn and mcguire just are gettin' higher

In l.a. you know where that's at

And no one's getting fat except mama cass.

When cass was a sophomoreplanned to go to swarthmore

But she changed her mind one day

Standign on the turnpikethumb out to hitchhike

Take her to new york right away

When denny met cass he gave her love bumps

Call john and zaland that was the mugwumps

Mcguinn and mcguire couldn't get no higher

But that's what they were aiming at

And no one's getting fat except mama cass.

Mugwumpshi-jumpslow slumpsbig bumps

Don't you work as hard as you play

Drink-upbreak-upeverything is shake-up

Guess it had to be that way

Sebastian and zal formed the spoonful

Michellejohn and denny gettin' very tuneful

Mcguinn and mcguire just are catchin' fire

In l.a. you know where that's at

And everybody's gettin' fast except mama cass.

Brokebusteddisgustedagents can't be trusted

And mitchie wants to go to the sea

Cass can't make itshe says we'll have to fake it

We knew she'd come eventually

Greasin' on american express card

Tentslow rentsand keepin' out the heat's hard

Duffy's good vibrationsand our imaginations

Can't go on indefinitely

And california dreaming is becoming a reality.
