Lyrics

California

Take me back to California West Coast, I'm comin' home Take me back to California Right where I started from California That's where I lived my whole life California Bury me there when I die Take me back to California That's where my body will lie Take me back to California That's where I'll go when I die I've been stickin' it out For one thousand miles on the 101 South The distance feels like it kills From San Francisco to the Hollywood Hills California That's where I lived my whole life California Bury me there when I die Take me back to California West Coast, I'm comin' home Take me back to California Right where I started from I'm comin' home to Cali From the redwood trees all the way to the valley The distance feels like it kills From San Francisco to the Hollywood Hills California That's where I lived my whole life California Bury me there when I die Take me back to California West Coast, I'm comin' home Take me back to California Right where I started from California Bury me there when I die
