Raised up on Midwestern dreamsOnly a few shall getWhat everyone shall needI took my family's burdenAnd strapped it to my chestA few hundred bucksand a kiss for luckAnd I pointed my dreams westTo CaliforniaCome rescue meCaliforniaI am almost freeI kept on drivin' to the settin' sunThe galaxies of angelsWelcome everyoneI took my heart out of its boxAttached it to my sleeveWell, I will be here every nightBecause that's what I believeIn CaliforniaCome rescue meCaliforniaI am almost freeI will find my loveI will know my peaceI will seek my truthI am almost freeI am almost freeI am almost freeI am almost freeI am almost freeIn CaliforniaI am almost freeIn CaliforniaI am almost freeRescue meCaliforniaI am almost free
