MiscellaneousMonterey lyrics by Eric Burdon & The Animals
The people came and listened
Some of them came and played
Others gave flowers away
Yes they did
Down in Monterey
Down in Monterey
Young gods smiled upon the crowd
Their music being born of love
Children danced night and day
Religion was being born
Down in Monterey
The Byrds and the Airplane did fly
Oh, Ravi Shankar's music made me cry
The Who exploded into fired light
Hugh Masekelas music was black as night
Grateful Dead blew everybody's mind
Jimi Hendrix, baby Believe me set the world on fire, yeah
His majesty Prince Jones smiled as he moved among the crowd
Ten thousand electric guitars were groovin' real loud, yeah
If you wanna find the truth in life
Don't pass music by
And you know I would not lie
No, I would not lie no, I would not lie
Down in Monterey, alright
Three days of understanding
Of moving with one another
Even the cops grooved with us
Do you believe me, yeah?
Down in Monterey
Down in Monterey, yeah
Down in Monterey
Down in Monterey, yeah
I think that maybe I'm dreamin'
Monterey, Monterey
Down in Monterey
Did you hear what I said?
Down in Monterey, Monterey
I said, "Monterey, Monterey, Monterey"
