Do You Know the Way to San Jose

Do you know the way
To San José?
I've been away so long
I may go wrong
And lose my way

Do you know the way
To San José?
I'm going back to find
Some peace of mind in San José

L.A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down
And buy a car
In a week, maybe two,
They'll make you a star

Weeks turn into years,
How quick they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas

You can really breathe
In San José
They've got a lot of space
There'll be a place
Where I can stay

I was born and raised
In San José
I'm going back
To find some peace of mind
In San José

Fame and fortune is a magnet
It can pull you far away from home
With a dream in your heart
You're never alone

Dreams turn into dust
And blow away
And there you are
Without a friend
You pack your car
And ride away

I've got lots of friends
In San José
Do you know the way
To San José?

Oh, L.A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down
And buy a car
In a week, maybe two,
They'll make you a star

Weeks turn into years,
How quick they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas

I've got lots of friends
In San José
Oh, do you know the way
To San José?
Can't wait to get back
To San José
