I want to go back
to Mayacamas Vinyards
and plant grapes while singing "Workin on the Chain Gang"
I want to go Back
to Wrights Beach, sleep on the sand, Waves crashing.
I Want to go Back
To Goat Rock and fly my dome tent like a kite
I want to go back
To Duncan Mills Campground where the stars shined like a cosmic Hasbro Light-Bright and the sound of the Russian river lulled me to sleep.
I want to go back
to the days when young men wore their pants around their waist
and you never saw any ones boxers.
I want to go back
To KVON Radio station and play the long version of "Carry On" By Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young while smoking Hashish out side the studio
I want to go back
and work the concession stand selling coke and candy bars at one of my mom's concerts at the Napa Fairgrounds
While "Country Joe and The Fish" play an anti war song and become part of rock and roll history.
I want to go back
To Golden Gate Park and see the "Jefferson Airplane" for free
I want to go back and drive my 1960 Ford Falcon from San Jose to Napa
on $3.00 worth of gas with "Pink Floyd" blaring from the Eight Track.
I want to go back and pinpoint just where the Star ship Enterprise first appears in the opening credits for "Star Trek" and Ride the back roads of Hazzard County with the Duke Boys, Back to when Hoss Cartwright's 10 gallon hat was 15 gallons and the "Bolt Brothers" Ran Seattle and owned Bridal Veil mountain.
I want to go back to a simpler time and place where multi- thousand watt car stereos dont exist and 9/11 was just another date.
I want to Go Back
to my best friend Ron Brooks's house when UHF telivision was the latest thing
and wachikanoka the Indian and the "Old Sourdough" were a late nite offering on "KEMO" channel 20 from San Francisco, and The Robinson Family were"Lost In Space" and "WWW" was "The Wild Wild West" Not the "World Wide Web"
Damn How I want to go Back!
