Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She lived at the end of a little dirt road
In a house where secrets go untold
Barefoot in a cotton dress
Dark hair in a tangled mess
And a head full of crazy dreams, she said
[Verse 2]
"Well, I'm goin' to California
A place where the sun always shines
Well, I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind"
[Verse 3]
You can't help but feel just a little bit touched
When your daddy loves you a little too much
You can wish on four-leaf clovers
But all the fields have been plowed over
And there's nothin' left to do but fly away, she said
[Verse 4]
"Well, I'm goin' to California
A place where the sun always shines
Well, I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind"
[Verse 5]
Stars burn like candles on that two-lane highway
She made her wish and disappeared
On her eighteenth birthday, and she said
[Verse 6]
"Well, I'm goin' to California
A place where the sun always shines
I'm going to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind"
[Verse 7]
Well, I'm goin' to California
And I'm leavin' everything behind
Oh, California
I'm goin' to California
Oh, California
Leavin' all behind
California
