Lyric :
If you’re going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you’re going to San Francisco
You’re gonna meet some gentle people there
For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hairAll across the nation
Such a strange vibration
People in motionThere’s a whole generation
With a new explanation
People in motion
People in motionFor those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in thereIf you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
