California Man Lyrics by Brisa Roché

Low Fidelity

2019

[Verse 1]
You sent to me a photo of the bed you brought from Mexico of sculptured wood
You know I'd be there if I could
The blanket thrown across was striped in red and black, of course
It kept the rain outside, you dream of stripes I wish I had tried
[Chorus]
(Some say)
Some say you're a wilful driven king
(Some say)
Some say you're the American Dream
(I say)
I say you're the grown-up boy with eyes of joy
That undo to wear my ring
[Verse 2]
My stone streets and fountains against your windmill, your mountains
And your carnivorous plants, don't have a chance
You gave me honeysuckle blooms, salmon from your basement rooms
And I left tipsy on your brother's whiskey
[Chorus]
(Some say)
Some say you're a wilful driven king
(Some say)
Some say you're the American Dream
(I say)
I say you're the grown-up boy with eyes of joy
That undo to wear my ring (Wear my ring)
[Verse 3]
And if your devils took from me the glasses bought in gay Paris
I only hope they wear them at their jamboree
Driving with the windows down, you pulled your cap off like a clown
On that dirt road, your cheeks became a rose
[Chorus]
(Some say)
Some say you're a wilful driven king
(Some say)
Some say you're the American Dream
(I say)
I say you're the grown-up boy with eyes of joy
That undo to wear my ring
[Verse 4]
Howling like the wind beneath the moon that's fat or thin
Someday I'll walk with you and I would tell you where I've been
And in my sleep, now in this busy town, I write songs for you
Without a sound
[Chorus]
(Some say)
Some say you're a wilful driven king
(Some say)
Some say you're the American Dream
(I say)
I say you're the grown-up boy with eyes of joy
That undo to wear my ring
[Outro]
My mind lately bears a heavy load
Up here in record-making mode
Still I don't forget you
Mm
Still I don't forget you
(California man)
California man
(California man)
California man
(California man)
California man
I will not forget you
I won't forget you
Oh-oh-oh
