Hello, San Francisco
Oh, we finally got a chance to meet
Hello, hello San Francisco
Woo, we finally got a chance to meet
I knew someday
That I would walk up and down your hilly streets
You know I left Chicago
Someone tell me nineteen and sixty eight
You know I left, I left Chicago
Somewhere around nineteen and sixty eight
For some of my good friends had told me
That my baby was headed toward that Golden Gate
You know, I heard she had a boyfriend
And this cat's name was Buddy Joe
You know, I heard she had a boyfriend
And this cat's name was Buddy Joe
I heard he was a big time gambler
And he was running a game down on Fillmore
Oh somebody tell me, tell me
Where can this Fillmore street be found
Oh somebody, somebody better tell me
Where in the world can this Fillmore street be found
You know I'm gonna find my woman down there
You don't think I'm gonna try to find that Fillmore district down.
