San Fernando Valley Lyrics

Johnny Mercer San Fernando Valley

Oh! I'm packin' my grip
And I'm leavin' today
'Cause I'm takin' a trip
California way
I'm gonna settle down and never more roam
And make the San Fernando Valley my home

I'll forget my sins, yes, yes
I'll be makin' new friends
Where the West begins
And the sunset ends
'Cause I've decided where yours truly really oughta be
And it's the San Fernando Valley for me

I think that I'm safe in statin'
She will be waitin'
When my lonely journey is done
And kindly old Rev'rend Thomas
Made us a promise
He will make the two of us one

So, I'm hittin' the trail
To the cow country
You can forward my mail
Care of R-F-D
I'm gonna settle down and never more roam
And make the San Fernando Valley my home

(Instrumental Break)

I think that I'm safe in statin'
She's gonna be be waitin'
When my lonely journey is done
And kindly old Rev'rend Thomas
Made us a promise
He will make the two of us one

So, I'm hittin' the trail
To the cow country
You can forward my mail
Care of R-F-D
I'm gonna settle down and never more roam
And make the San Fernando Valley my home
And make the San Fernando Valley my home
And make the San Fernando Valley my home
