MENDOCINO
(Doug Sahm)
Sir Douglas Quintet - 1969
(The Sir Douglas Quintet is back.
We'd like to thank all of our beautiful friends all over the country
For all the beautiful vibrations. We love you.)
Teeny Bopper, my teenage lover
I caught your waves last night
It sent my mind to wondering.
You're such a groove
Please don't move
Please stay in my love house by the river.
Fast-talking guys with strange red eyes
Have put things in your head
And started your mind to wondering
I love you so, please don't go
Please stay here with me in Mendocino.
Mendocino, Mendocino,
Where life's such a groove
You blow your mind in the morning.
We used to walk through the park,
Make love along the way in Mendocino.
(Ah, play it, Augie! Yeah!)
Like I told you, can you dig it?
If you want to groove, I'll be glad to have you.
'Cause I love you so, please don't go,
Please stay here with me in Mendocino,
Mendocino, Mendocino
Where life's such a groove,
You blow your mind in the morning
We used to walk through the park,
Make love along the way in Mendocino
Mendocino, Mendocino, Mendocino
