I got to get to California right away
|
I got to get to California right away
|
Just to see the evening sun setting in the west
|
Breaks my heart, reminds me of the true love that I left
|
In the sunset I can see my baby's face just haunting me
|
Reminding me of the tenderness that heaven knows was in her kiss
|
I had a love that was mine mine mine mine alone
|
But I played the fool and Lord I left my happy home
|
What a fool a man can be, but this loneliness inside of me says
|
I got to get to California right away
|
I got to get to California
|
|
I wish I was there by my baby's side
|
Lord I wish I had listened to my heart and not my pride
|
She tried to tell me that I had no reason to tell her she was...
|
I was blinded by my pride and I just couldn't see
|
Now I've got to hurry, I've got a reason to worry
|
I've got to be on the move, true love I'm gonna lose
|
I pray it's not too late, oh I might have to catch a freight
|
I got to get to California right away
|
I got to get to California right away
|
|
Ohhhhh may have to hitchhike baby
|
Might have to hop a freight
|
Yea yeah now I've got to hurry
|
Now I've got a reason to worry
|
I've got to be on the move
|
Or true love I'm gonna lose
|
What a fool a man can be
|
But this loneliness inside of me says
|
I got to get to California right away
|
I got to get to California
|
|
Might have to hitchhike, baby
|
Might have to hitch a ride
|
Oh now now I got to get to California
|
