Lyrics:
The Valley
(A. Cohen, D. Tozer)

Surf City Squeeze
And a tabloid magazine
She went through the same routine last week
Out in Ojai
She's a small town beauty queen
She promised herself she'd keep it clean

She's gotta get out the Valley
Though her friends don't understand why
She's gonna make it in Cali
Gotta try
She's gotta get out the Valley
If she stays too long she'll die
She's gonna make it in Cali
Gotta try
Gotta try

Saying goodbye
To the grind at the Coffee Bean
That blue collar life don't mean a thing
Hollywood lights
Always shining in her dreams
She wants her name on the silver screen

She's gotta get out the Valley
Tho her friends can't understand why
She's gonna make it in Cali
Gotta try
She's gotta get out the Valley
If she stays too long she'll die
She's gonna make it in Cali
Gotta try
Gotta try

I hear a Steely Dan influence. Wow, what a great song. Love it.

[mathsensei]

This song is soooo underrated. He is one of the best artists today imo

[keepyourheadup]

Rocking this in 2020 like it was released in yesterday..

[ScottMccain]

Damn ! I just realize this isn't from the 80's !! So CLEAN ! Wonderfull music, only good vibes allowed !

[BlackLilac]

So sad how underrated he is. He's one of the few artists today that makes honestly good songs. (Btw I got a very Boz Scaggs-like vibe from this whole album, especially this song and "Book of Broken Hearts").

[lorizamudio]
