Going Back To Big Sur:Johnny Rivers. Album - Realization - #5 on BB Hot 200 on LIBERTY Records in 1968. INTRO: #1. It’s a cold and rainy Friday night city life’s got me all uptight. My mind keeps wandering far away vibrations tell me it’s time to leave L.A. CHORUS: Going back to Big Sur..wish I could leave today. I want to walk beneath those Redwood trees..just south of Monterey. #2. A little cabin quiet and alone..no television and no telephone. Water trickling down this little stream..makes you wonder is it all just a dream?     CHORUS: Going back to Big Sur..this time I might just stay. Going back and straighten out my head..just south of Monterey. BRIDGE: Friendly people all  around never try to put you down. Makes you feel like someone new and they don’t care who you are or what you do.     #3. Guess I’ll drive up highway one..dig the ocean kiss the setting sun. The stars dancing in the sky sort of puts you on a natural high.... CHORUS: Going back to Big Sur..this time I might just stay. Going back and straighten out my head..just south of Monterey...(and that girl..) A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
