Irving Berlin

An Orange Grove in California

I've a longing to go
Where the oranges grow
I know a cozy nest
'Way out west

And I miss it so
California my own
Oh how lonely I've grown
That's why I'm on the run

To the one
I left there all alone

Arm in arm we will rove
Through a sweet orange grove
Far away in California
Like a bird I mean to fly west again

And I'll hold her close to my breast again
When the blossoms unfold
And the green turns to gold
Some fine day in California

You'll see a happy girlie and a happy fellow
'Mid the fields of yellow
In an orange grove


Writer/s: Irving Berlin
