Lo was the loving kind, one of the big sure gypsies And she'd spend all the treasures I would bring And she'd sit in the sun and she'd sing She walked the harbor night, bright as a beacon shining And she'd run out of people who would care For the flowers and the gray in her hair She said, bury my ashes in Monterey Bay Don't let nobody sing the peace song You're just hot when you're young and you're cold when you're old She loved me one last time, we both enjoyed the memories We were good as we thought we used to be Though by now we know nothing is free She walked me to the road, she said she liked my Porsche Then she walked back with no shoes on her feet That made my sadness complete She said, bury my ashes in Monterey Bay Don't let nobody sing the peace song You're just hot when you're young and you're cold when you're old All she really wanted was a way to love But all she ever had were sighs of love to call for love She said, bury my ashes in Monterey Bay Don't let nobody sing the peace song You're just hot when you're young and you're cold when you're old She said, bury my ashes in Monterey Bay Don't let nobody sing the peace song You're just hot when you're young and you're cold when you're old She said, bury my ashes in Monterey Bay Don't let nobody sing the peace song You're just hot when you're young and you're cold when you're old
