California Blues Lyrics


Sittin' up here in a big house
LA goes on far as I can see
got an old time feelin'
somewhere down the line is calling me
been going' through the pages of my mind
wonder what I think I'm gonna find
it don't matter anyway
tomorrow I'll be leavin' you, LA.
California Blues, I know you well
what the hell, you're nothin' new to me
California Blues, you can never tell
could be I loved her more than she could see
Now, I walked in here grinnin'
I ain't winnin' but I'm leavin' like I came
I gambled with the love she gave
and like a fool I did not know the game

but the closest thing to winning must be losin'
and now and then it gets so damned confusin'
but it don't matter anyway
tomorrow I'll be leavin' you, LA
California Blues, I know you well
what the hell, you're nothin' new to me
California Blues, you can never tell
could be I loved her more than she could see
could be I wasn't what she wanted me to be

Woodrow Wilson "Woody" Guthrie (July 14, 1912–October 3, 1967) was an American songwriter and folk musician. Guthrie's musical legacy consists of hundreds of songs, ballads and improvised works covering topics from political themes to traditional songs to children's songs. Guthrie performed continually throughout his life with his guitar frequently displaying the slogan "This Machine Kills Fascists". Guthrie is perhaps best known for his song "This Land Is Your Land", which is regularly sung in American schools. Many of his recorded songs are archived in the Library of Congress.
