Closing Theme Lyrics:
“California
California
I’ve travelled here.
I’ve travelled there.
I guess I’ve been most everywhere.
But I like where I am today
And here is where I’ll stay.
Now one thing I just can’t endure
Is being broke and being poor.
So I come west to take the cure
And here is where I’ll stay.
Refrain
I’ve come to Califor-Nee-A, Califor-Nee-A.
There’s gold in them there hills in Califor-Nee-A.
I’ve come to live where life is best
In the Golden West.
I’m gonna strike it rich in Califor-Nee-A
Califor-Nee-A, Califor-Nee-A.
There’s gold in them there hills in Califor-Nee-A.”
