Scott McKenzie: San Francisco:

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

[Verse 2]
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 hair

[Bridge]
All across the nation such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation with a new explanation
People in motion, people in motion

[Verse 3]
For 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 there

[Outro]
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there

Frank Zappa was making fun of the whole "Go to San Francisco" thing at the time in 1968

quote:

I will ask the Chamber Of Commerce
How to get to Haight Street
And smoke an awful lot of dope
I will wander around barefoot
You know I have a psychedelic gleam in my eye at all times
I will love everyone
I will love the police as they kick the shite out of me on the street
I will sleep
Yes, I will go to a house
That's, that's what I will do I will go to a house
Where there's a rock roll band
Because the groups all live together
I will stay with a rock & roll band
I will be their road manager And I will stay there with them
And I will get the crabs
