When I was young my mamma told me
SHe said child take your time
Don`t fall in love too quickly
Before you know the one
She held me round the shoulders
In a voice so soft and kind
She said love can make you happy
And love can rob you blind
Here in California fruit hangs heavy on the vines
There`s no gold I thought I`d warn you
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
Now I will learn to love you
But I can`t say when
This morning we were strangers
And tonight we`re only friends
I`ll take the time to know you
I`ll take the time to see
There`s nothing I won`t show you
If you take your time with me
Here in California fruit hangs heavy on the vines
There`s no gold I thought I`d warn you
And the hills turn brown in the summertime

SOLO

There`s a old familiar story
An old familiar rhyme
To everything there is a season
To every purpose there`s a time
A time to love and come together
A time when love longs for air ??
A time for questions we can`t answer
Though we ask them just the same
Here in California fruit hangs heavy on the vines
There`s no gold I thought I`d warn you
And the hills turn brown in the summertime
