California

[Verse 1]
California sun, Puerto Rican rum
I should be having fun, but I'm not
I'm sitting in this bar on Sunset Boulevard
Hoping her feelings for me haven't changed a lot

[Chorus]
California, don't take it personal
But there's a Georgia girl I've just got to see
California, you're still the golden state
And I'm coming back someday
And I'll bring her with me

[Verse 2]
If you'd seen her eyes the day we said goodbye
Then you'd know why I've got to leave
I'm hanging on the phone, God, I hope she's home
'Cause I've got something to tell her tonight that just won't keep

[Chorus]
California, you made me understand
Without her, I'm not the man that I need to be
California, she's from another world
But you're gonna love that girl
Just wait and see

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
California, don't take it personal
But there's a Georgia girl I've just got to see
California, you're still the golden state
And I'm coming back someday
And I'll bring her with me

[Outro]
California, you made me understand
Without her, I'm not the man that I need to be...
