[Verse 1]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
Been so long I felt this way
But I'm in no hurry, no
Rainbows end down that highway
Where ocean breezes blow
My time coming, voices say
And they tell me where to go

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
And i'm in no hurry
No, no, no, I know where to go

[Chorus]
California
Preaching on the burning shore
California
I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standin' in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
I know I'm gonna shine

[Verse 2]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me. no
Been so long I felt this way
And I’m in no hurry, no
It’s going to be just like they say
Them voices tell me so
Yes, I know I lead the way
And they'll tell me where I go

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
And i'm in no hurry
No, no, no, I know where I go

[Chorus]
California
A prophet on the burning shore
California
I'll be knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standin' in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
I know I'm gonna shine

[Bridge]
You've all been asleep, you would not believe me
Them voices telling me you will soon receive me
Standing on the beach, the sea will part before me
(Fire wheel burning in the air)
You will follow me and we will rise to glory
(Way up the middle of the air)

And I'll call down thunder and speak the same
And my work fills the sky with flame
And might and glory gonna be my name
And men going to light my way

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
It's gonna be just like they say
Them voices tell me so
In the afternoon, the streets turn gray
And I watch the pyre glow
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no

[Outro]
And don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
And I'm in no hurry
No, no, no, I know where I go
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
And I'm in no hurry
No, no, don't worry about me, no

No, no, no
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no

No, no, no, no (ooh)
No, no, no, no (ooh)
No, no, no, no (ooh)
No, no, no, no, no (ooh)
No, no, no, no (ooh)

No, no, no
Ah, no, no, no
Ah, no, no, no, no, no
Ah, no, no, no, no
