Gold in California

Gold in California

I love it like its my home town

But I wasn't born here

Was never a quarterback Last chance Hail Mary Trying to get out of here

But if I ever lay roots down T

his is my sacred ground

Well it's one mile straight shot

Two by the blacktop

Dirt through the redwoods

Out to the last rock

Come see the gold In California

lt's like God's own painting Baby,

I'll be there waiting for ya

Oh, take a jet plane Dirt road Wagon wheel West bound train that's waiting for ya

Come see the gold in California

HIgh over Big Sur

Sunset dripping in deep blue

It's like an "X" on a map Like a best secret that waits for you

Wind in a cotton dress Ahhh it's blowing through your hair

Waves in the wind Like a flag I'd follow you anywhere

Anywhere yeah yeah nananana Hollywood hippies

Acting all trippy

Riding Route 1

Sitting out the quake

East coast schemers And rust belt dreamers Are headed west boy

Till that axel breaks

It's six days straight shot

Three if you don't stop

Dirt through the redwoods

Up to the last rock
