I've been around the world
And yeah, I've seen a lot of girls
But there's only one kind that always seems to be on my mind
Through Laguna Beach
Or on the streets of Hollywood
Even up in Santa Cruz they're twisting and they're turning all night long
Every good old boy needs a California Girl
My only type of girl, a California Girl
Every good old boy needs a California Girl
You know you gotta have it
You know you gotta get it
A California Girl
You know they're always tanned
They love the rides at Disneyland
From San Francisco to La Jolla they love the boys who like to surf, oh yeah!
California Girls like to have fun
Blonde hair, blue eyes
Out under the sun
I just can't get them off my mind
Off my mind, yeah
Every good old boy needs a California Girl
My only type of girl, a California Girl
Every good old boy needs a California Girl
You know you gotta have it
You know you gotta get it
A California Girl
So tell me do you want a, do you want a California Girl?
(We really want a, really want a California Girl!)
So tell me do you want a, do you want a California Girl?
(We really want a, really want a California Girl!)
So tell me do you wanna, do you wanna surf, surf?
(We really wanna, really wanna surf, surf!)
So tell me do you wanna, do you wanna p-p-p-p-party?
Every good old boy needs a California Girl
My only type of girl, a California Girl
Every good old boy needs a California Girl
You know you gotta have it
You know you gotta get it
A California Girl
