California

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Be still and know that I am leaving I know that this is more than a feeling I would much rather be anywhere, anywhere but here But living's not free and money don't grow on trees 'round here [Chorus] California's calling my name California's calling my name I've never, ever felt this way And I know I'm gonna go insane, heh [Verse 2] Long hair and a cigarette White teeth and an Escalade The girls in my town are looking for somebody to love But they're not looking for me [Verse 3] I take a step back, take a step back, take a step back Take a step back and count my dollars bills Well, let's just say, let's just say I'm not well to do [Pre-Chorus] Long hair and a cigarette White teeth and an Escalade Long hair and a cigarette White teeth and an Escalade [Chorus] California's calling my name California's calling my name I've never, ever felt this way And I know I'm gonna go insane, oh [Bridge] I can hear you calling, "Oh, baby don't go" The sun is setting over yonder, baby, oh Everybody drives a Lexus and I want one so bad Rubbing elbows with celebrities, I want you to be with me When I step into the ocean for the very first time I promise I'll make our dreams come true this time I can see you, come hither, baby, show me your moves And we can move away tonight, alright [Chorus] California's calling my name California's calling my name I've never, ever felt this way And I know I'm gonna go insane [Outro] California's calling my name California's calling my name I've never, ever felt this way And I know I'm gonna go insane, oh
