Chorus:
Ventura Highway in the sunshine
Where the days are longer, the nights are stronger than moonshine
You're gonna go, I kno-----w
Cause the free wind is blowin' through your hair
And the day surrounds your daylight there
Season's crying, no despair
Alligator, lizards in the air, in the air
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
