California here I come I'm keeping up with the sun I sort of like it here but Oh hell the truth be told I'm the only one I could have been a better man I could have tried I could have had a better plan And gone out in style I could always get around When times were high No one ever comes around People go for bigger towns They take a look and talk a while And the truth be told They always hit the road I could have been a better man I could have tried I could have had a better plan And gone out in style I could always get around When times were high I could have been a better man I could have tried In never ever ever land My stakes are high And I've been lonely as hell
