Do you know the way to San Jose? I've been away so long I may go wrong and lose my way Do you know the way to San Jose? I'm going back To find some peace of mind In San Jose 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 Jose They've got a lot of space There'll be a place where I can stay I was born and raised in San Jose I'm going back To find some peace of mind In San Jose Fame and fortunes a magnet It can pull you far away from home With a dream in your heart You are never alone Dreams turn into dust and blow away And there you are without a friend You pack your car and ride away I got lots of friends in San Jose Do you know the way to San Jose? 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 got lots of friends in San Jose Do you know the way to San Jose? Can't wait to get back home To San Jose
