California Lyrics by Gov

2017

[Verse 1]

Girl I'm driving real slow (oh), through California, how fast this car can go (oh), girl I wonder;
I hope I’m in control (oh), I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, let your body go;
Touchin’ on your skin, got me caught up on you, girl I’m stuck again;
Callin on you, when I need you now, girl you my drug, you know I’m fiending now;
(You know I need ya)

[Bridge]

I need your body, girl I want your body, might be somebody, I might be somebody;
I need somebody, and you could be somebody, I don’t trust nobody, but I want your body;

[Chorus]

Ooh, woah, I want your body, ooh ohhh I need your body;
Ooh, woah, might be somebody, might be somebody, girl I need some body;
(Ai, Aiiii) Come spend the night (one ti-ime ai-ai), I’ll get you right;
For the ni-ight, for the ni-ight;

[Verse 2]

Driving down the freeway on the long way home, long way home, but now that’s changing;
180 on the roads, girl you all alone, all alone, don’t want you waiting;
Flying out to see me baby when I ain't home, when I ain't home, oooh no no;
Got me fucked up without you, baby I need you close, I need you close, come on over;

[Bridge]

I know that you been, done so wrong by him before, but I ain't him, you a diamond, that’s his loss;
That’s his loss, you a diamond, that’s his loss, girl I’m on my way, so lose them clothes, go take em off;

[Chorus]

Ooh, woah, I want your body, ooh ohhh I need your body;
Ooh, woah, might be somebody, might be somebody, girl I need some body;
(Ai, Aiiii) Come spend the night (one ti-ime ai-ai), I’ll get you right;
For the ni-ight, for the ni-ight;
