California Zephyr Lyrics


From the Great Salt Lakes of Utah
To California's golden shore
Colorado and Nevada
Through the deserts burnin' door
While she's circlin' through the canyons
Can't you see that mountain stream
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific Queen
See her rockin' see her rollin'
As she rambles on her way
She left L.A. this mornin'
Burnin' up the right of way
In the distance hear her moanin'
Hear her lonesome whistle scream
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific Queen
She leaves the city of the angels
Headin' for ole Santa Fe

She's a makin' nauts, she's makin' time
Just watch her swing and sway
And from way out in the darkness
See that headlight gleam
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific Queen
From the Great Salt Lakes of Utah
To California's golden shore
Colorado and Nevada
Through the deserts burnin' door
While she's circlin' through the canyons
Can't you see that mountain stream
It's the California Zephyr
The Union Pacific Queen

In an ode to Beat author Jack Kerouac, alt-country musician Jay Farrar has teamed with Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard for a collaborative album, "One Fast Move or I'm Gone: Kerouac's Big Sur." The 12-song set was released October 20 by F-Stop/Atlantic and serves as the soundtrack to a Kerouac documentary of the same name. Farrar and Gibbard were approached by the filmmakers in 2007 about writing music for the film, which documents the author's time spent in the Big Sur region of California.
