California I Gotta Run

I lived most half my life from everything I knew

Left to find my sanity maybe make a dream come true

And much to my surprise cuz I never would believe

California I’m gonna leave


All these palm trees same weather every day

They say what’s not to like but I just disagree

I guess the sameness of livin here’s the norm

I miss Midwest thunderstorms


California dreamin was the motto in the day

Found lots of answers and I’m glad I came to stay

Ain’t no regrets of why I had to come

California I gotta run


Green grassy meadows with a barn and a pond

Sittin on the front porch with friends and play some songs

This is what I’m dreamin of L.A. had my fill

Leavin California can’t wait until


All these palm trees same weather every day

They say what’s not to like but I just disagree

I guess the sameness of livin here’s the norm

I miss Midwest thunderstorms



California dreamin was the motto in the day

Found lots of answers and I’m glad I came to stay

Ain’t no regrets of why I had to come

California I gotta run


California dreamin was the motto in the day

Found lots of answers and I’m glad I came to stay

Ain’t no regrets of why I had to come

California I gotta run

( instrumental break)

California I gotta run

California I gotta run

California I gotta run

California I gotta run
