Lyrics:

I had a dream, oh, now, crazy dream, uh-huh-uh-uh
Anything I wanted to know, anyplace I needed to go
Hear my song, now, people, don't ya listen, now
Sing along, oh, you don't know what you're missin', now
Any little song that you know, everything that's small has to grow
and it's full-grown, yeah, push, push, yeah

California sunlight, sweet Calcutta rain
Honolulu star-bright, the song remains the same

Are you, now, are you, now
Are you, are you-you, now, are you-you, now, ooh-wee

Sing out hare, hare, ooh, dance the Hoochie-Koo
City lights are oh, so bright as we go slidin', slidin'
Slidin', slidin', slidin' slidin' slidin' slidin'
Slidin-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah through
ahhhhh

Influences: The riff in this song was recycled by Jimmy Page from a song he played in The Yardbirds titled Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor.
