[Chorus] 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 [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] Fame and fortune is a magnet, it can pull you far away from home With a dream in your heart you're never alone Dreams turn into dust and blow away And there you are without a friend, you pack your car and ride away [Chorus] I've got lots of friends in San Jose Do you know the way to San Jose? [Verse 1] Oh, 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 [Outro] I've got lots of friends in San Jose Oh, oh, do you know the way to San Jose? Hmm, can't wait to get back to San Jose
