California (Home Recording) Lyrics by Tom Petty

Wildflowers & All The Rest

0

California's been good to me
Hope it don't fall into the sea
Sometimes you got to trust yourself
It ain't like anywhere else
It ain't like anywhere else
Time to roll, I'm all done
Time I'd better hit the road
I got work later on
It's time I'd better hit the road
California's been good to me
Hope it don't fall into the sea
Sometimes you got to trust yourself
It ain't like anywhere else
It ain't like anywhere else
Sundown, red skies
Nobody's been around
Sundown, blue eyes
Kinda like this party town
California's been good to me
Hope it don't fall into the sea
Sometimes you got to trust yourself
It ain't like anywhere else
It ain't like anywhere else
I forgive my past
I forgive my enemies
Don't know if this will last
Gonna just wait and see
California's been good to me
Hope it don't fall into the sea
Sometimes you got to trust yourself
It ain't like anywhere else
It ain't like anywhere else
