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

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

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

Fame and fortune is a magnet

It can pull you far away from home

With a dream in your heart, you're never alone

The dreams turn into dust and blow away

And there you are without a friend

You pack the car and you ride away

I've got lots of friends in San Jose

Do you know the way to San Jose?

Fame and fortune is just like a magnet

It can pull you far away from home

But with a dream in your heart, you're never alone

Dreams turn into dust and blow away

And there you are, without a friend

So you pack up the car and you drive it away

Oh, I've got lots of friends in San Jose

Do you know the way to San Jose?

Well I'm telling you, I can't wait to get back to San Jose
