You haven't added the client libraries in your project. http://code.google.com/p/google-api-java-client/wiki/Setup. You will get the google-api-java-client-1.14.1-beta.zip file at the above link. Save those jar files in your libs folder of Android project.

Add this:

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.api-client/google-api-client -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.api-client</groupId>
    <artifactId>google-api-client</artifactId>
    <version>1.23.0</version>
</dependency>

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.oauth-client/google-oauth-client-jetty -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.google.oauth-client</groupId>
    <artifactId>google-oauth-client-jetty</artifactId>
    <version>1.23.0</version>
</dependency>

If you are trying to add a Google API to an Android app as I was, and if you are using Eclipse, the following is very easy.

Right-click on a project, select "Google > Add Google APIs...", select the Google API you need from the list of available Google APIs, click Finish, and it will automatically download the API client library
