Songs with west coast US place names in the lyrics

[Goochie]

Ahead of our West Coast US road trip, my wife has asked me to put together a CD of songs to help her holiday count-down. They need to be songs relating to California, Nevada or Arizona and/or places in those states.

So far I have come up with:

San Francisco Nights
California Dreaming
Hotel California
Californication
Viva Las Vegas
Route 66
Hollywood Nights


Any more?
