California

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I stretched myself across four states New lands, west coast, where my dreams lay I trade amberclayroads for the Seafoam and the endless sun rays [Pre-Chorus] 'CauseI was never told that I wasn't gonna get The thingsIwantthe most But peoplealways say, "Ifit hasn't happened yet Then maybe you should go" [Chorus] Come get me out of California No leaves are brown I miss the seasons in Missouri My dying town Thought I'd be cool in California I'd make you proud To think I almost had it going But I let you down [Verse 2] Too hard to find reasons to stay Even true love could not persuade [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause I was never told that I wasn't gonna get The things I want the most And people always say, "If it hasn't happened yet Then maybe you should go" [Chorus] Come get me out of California No leaves are brown I miss the seasons in Missouri My dying town Thought I'd be cool in California I'd make you proud To think I almost had it going But I let you down [Bridge] Come get me out Come get me out Come get me out Come get me out [Chorus] Come get me out of California No leaves are brown I miss the seasons in Missouri My dying town Thought I'd be cool in California I'd make you proud To think I almost had it going But I let you down
