Not From California

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I'm more mountains and riversThan oceans and wavesI'm more moonshine and whiskey, than vineyards and grapesI'm more back roads and dives than Hollywood signsI'm more sit by the juke box than lines out the doorNo, I'm not from CaliforniaI'm from somewhere you ain't anymoreI'm more stars in the skyThan stars on the sidewalkI'm more old wooden pew than bench on the boardwalkI'm more kiss you and mean it, than love you and leave itI'm more roots in the ground than footprints on the shoreNo, I'm not from CaliforniaI'm from somewhere you ain't anymoreYou're out there dreamin'While I'm back here drinkin' over usNo, I'm not from CaliforniaBut tonight I wish I wasI'm more act tough and fake itThan find a flight and take itBut I'm too late to say I'm sorry for all I'm sorry forI'm not from California, but you can't say I didn't warn youThat I'm the guy who's gonna die right where he was bornNo, I'm not from CaliforniaI'm from somewhere you ain't anymore
