My California

Lyrics

My California
 My heart is calling for you
 My sweet California
 You'll always be there for me
 You'll always be there for me
 I packed up all my dreams and I brought 'em with me
 All the way up to Boston down to Tennessee
 Trying to figure out what's gonna come to me
 But you gotta make your own opportunities
 My mama taught me nothing ever comes for free
 So you better work hard play til your fingers bleed
 Now you might think I'm crazy and you may be right
 But that's what's gonna make me win this fight
 Everyday I try to keep it as real as I can
 Livin down in Florida gettin way too tan
 Playing up and down all these southern towns
 1, 000 miles every week that's how we get down
 I've had my highs my lows and a little so so
 Everyone's tryin to tell you what is good for your soul
 I might look lost yeah but I am found
 I've got both of my feet planted deep in the ground
 My California
 My heart is calling for you
 My sweet California
 You'll always be there for me
 You'll always be there for me
 Went to Berklee with a double E
 These people really don't know what it means to bleed
 Preachin about the music technicalities
 Suzuki taught me all of these priorities
 But you cannot believe if you do not feel
 Nobody can teach about life for real
 You gotta dive in & you gotta take off
 You better go & go and never never stop
 I'll work harder than you all cause that's what I know
 Keep my head down & charge like a bull
 This California girl has got her glass half full
 But today it's not enough because I'm lookin for more
 I've got a hunger that is burnin right into my soul
 Tryin to get my words out and into this world
 I'm quiet on the outside loud on the inside
 My minds on overdrive and I'm just here for the ride
 My California
 My heart is calling for you
 My sweet California
 You'll always be there for me
 You'll always be there for me
 I was born and raised in the Mendo state
 I turned 21 in the Golden Gate
 I know all the roads like the back of my hand
 They keep me company when noone else can
 It's were I broke my heart and then I got a new start
 Believe me when I say nothing will tear us apart
 I'll keep my calm and cool as a Norcal rule
 But I will shake your earth if you play me the fool
 From the Covelo Road, down the 101
 Through the Grapevine, hey LA here I come
 This is where I'm gonna find my freedom
 Unless I'm sitting here just California dreamin
 I wanna travel the world, a dream of a little girl
 Pedal to the metal that's right, here we go
 Take 1 take 2 take 203
 Slap the guitar, come on give me the beat
 My California
 My heart is calling for you
 My sweet California
 You'll always be there for me
 You'll always be there for me
 I'm a little crazy it runs in my blood
 For good, bad and ugly yeah just because
 I started at the bottom and I'll make it to the top
 No matter how many songs that I have to drop
 I'm gonna make it I will never give up
 Keep the beat going come on turn it up
 I sing it like I feel it like I'm livin it now
 I won't bite my tounge yeah that's how I sound
 Now I'm living down by the East Coast waves
 Alligator Ally and the Everglades
 Cruisin up and down this sunny state
 Next stop New York yeah we got a date
 I won't forget about my Californ I A
 My West Coast girl and her hippie ways
 I'll be comin home that much I can say
 I will be with you in my final days
 My California
 My heart is calling for you
 My sweet California
 You'll always be there for me
 My California
 My heart is calling for you
 My sweet California
 You'll always be there for me
 You'll always be there for me
