[Verse 1]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
Been so long I felt this way
And I'm in no hurry, no
Rainbows end down that highway
Where ocean breezes blow
My time coming, voices saying
And they tell me where I'll go

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry 'bout me
No, no, don't worry 'bout me, no
And I'm in no hurry
No, no, 'cause I know where to go

[Chorus]
California
Preaching on the burning shore
California
Knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
You know I'm gonna shine
[Verse 2]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry about me, no
Been so long I felt this way
I ain't in no hurry, no
Voices tell me what to say
And they tell me where I'll go, yeah, yeah
No, lead the way, them voices tell me so
Tell me so

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
I ain't in no hurryAnd I'm in no hurry
No, no, 'cause I know where to go

[Chorus]
California
A prophet on the burning shore
California
Knock, knocking on the golden door
Like an angel
Standing in a shaft of light
Rising up to paradise
You know I'm gonna shine, shine
[Bridge]
You've all been asleep, you would not believe me (Ooh, ooh)
Them voices telling me you will soon receive me (Ooh, ooh)
Shine on the beach, sea will part before me
(Fire wheel burning in the air)
You will follow me and we will rise up to glory
(Way up the middle of the air)
And I'll call down thunder and speak the same
My work fills the sky with flame
Might and glory gonna be my name
People will light my way

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
My time coming, any day
Don't worry 'bout me, no
Been so long I felt this way
I ain't in no hurry, no
This afternoon, she's in red
I watched the car explode
Still I know I lead the way
Them voices tell me so

[Outro]
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
I ain't in no hurry
No, no, 'cause I know where to go
Don't worry about me
No, no, don't worry about me, no
I ain't in no hurry
No, no, 'cause I know where to go
Don't worry about me, no
No, no, don't worry about me, no
I said no, no, no
No, no, no
Don't worry about me, no
Ooh, no, no, no
Ooh, no, no, no
Ooh, don't worry about me, don't worry about me
Don't worry about me, no
No, no, the voices know just what to say
Tell me where I'll go
Still I know I lead the way
The voices tell me so
Don't worry about me, no
No, no no, no, no no, no no, no no
No no, no no, no, no no, no, no
No no, no no, no, no, no, no
