2794 miles from here to LA 243 gallons of gas stretched over two days Two suitcases of clothes, a guitar, and some shoes for ballet Two lovers who saw a normal life and drove the other way California, California We've waited on you please don't let us down California, California We're banking on you this time around 2-30 in the morning and he's counting the tips in the jar 2 stings of the 6 he's got to fix on his trusty guitar Two blocks down the street she's there to meet him, and she brought the car Too bad that she's the only one who knows that he's a rock star California, California We've waited on you please don't let us down California, California We're banking on you this time around 2 auditions down, 1 to go then she heads back to work To a diner where she waits for her big break off 20 second and third Today might be the day she hears the news that she's never heard And can finally go home to a man that's going to be proud of her California, California We've waited on you please don't let us down California, California We're banking on you this time around 2794 miles from here to LA Two lovers who saw a normal life and drove the other way
