Lyrics
O Los Angeles Tafoya/Bosserman 2005
(O Los Angeles, My Los Angeles)
They come from Rio they come from Tokoyo, Barcelona, Philadelphia.
They come from Paris, Guadalahara and Bombay.
To the city of the world they are drawn.
They come they stay. They come they say,
O Los Angeles , My Los Angeles.
They bring their magic, they bring their industry
They bring their smiles and their sincerity.
They bring their hopes and aspirations.
And, they reach to the stars.
To the city of the world they are drawn.
They come they stay. They come they say,
O Los Angeles , My Los Angeles. 2Xs
And they have the sunsets
Mountains and the beaches and the tarpits (jet set)
Movie stars, boulevards and UCLA
Olvera St, palm trees and cafes,
There?s so much work. There?s so much play.
To the city of the world they are drawn.
They come they stay. They come they say,
O Los Angeles , My Los Angeles. 3xs
