(Talk to Me of) Mendocino Lyrics

I bid farewell to the state of old New York
My home away from home
In the state of New York I came of age
When first I started roamingAnd the trees grow high in New York state
And they shine like gold in the autumn
Never had the blues from whence I came
But in New York state, I got 'emTalk to me of Mendocino
Closing my eyes I hear the sea
Must I wait, must I follow
Won't you say come with meAnd it's on to south bend, Indiana
Flat out on the western plain
Rise up over the rockies and down on into California
Out to where but the rocks againAnd let the sun set on the ocean
I will watch it from the shore
Let the sun rise over the redwoods
I'll rise with it till I rise no moreTalk to me of Mendocino
Closing my eyes I hear the sea
Must I wait, must I follow

Won't you say come with me
