[Verse 1]
I'll take you back to 1969
Let's hit the city of freedom like old times
It's getting dirty underneath the blue sky
Imagine you and me counting the butterflies
One, two, three, let's bring it on
Keep on dancing in the streets of love
French kissing on JFK drive
'Till we crash at the beach where we watch the sun rise

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me what you're waiting for
(We're crossing the Golden Gate, party at the Frisco Bay)

[Chorus]
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Where you got flowers in your hair, girl, party everywhere, girl)
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Where the love is in the air, all the people stop and stare)
Baby, take me back to the city of love
To the place that I've been dreaming of
Wake me up in San Francisco

[Verse 2]
It's 10 PM, getting ready for the night
Wanna be a hippie when the city's getting high
Cruising down Broadway, you on my side
Pulling over my pink rover at the hungry eye
One, two, three, let's bring it on
DJ, play my favorite beat (All night long)
Poppin' some bottles champagne, red wine
And we both giddy up on the rooftop and watch the city lights
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me what you're waiting for
(We're crossing the Golden Gate, party at the Frisco bay)

[Chorus]
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Where you got flowers in your hair, girl, party everywhere, girl)
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Where the love is in the air, all the people stop and stare)
Baby, take me back to the city of love
To the place that I've been dreaming of, yeah
Wake me up in San Francisco (Oh, oh, oh)

[Bridge]
We're playing songs of life like it's '69
We sing and dance under the neon lights
Stars shine so bright on the city tonight
(We're crossing the Golden Gate, party at the Frisco bay)

[Chorus]
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Where you got flowers in your hair, girl, party everywhere, girl)
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Where the love is in the air, all the people stop and stare)

[Outro]
Baby, take me back to the city of love, yeah
To the place that I've been dreaming of
Wake me up in San Francisco
(Everybody go oh-oh, oh-oh)
Come on, take me back to the city of love
(To the place, the place that I've been dreaming of)
So wake me up in San Francisco
