California via Tennessee

I went to California via Tennessee I went to California see what

I could see I saw the surf break right and the earth break free

and the high wave crash right into zuma beach

I met a girl with a dirt floor charm we sung with sand in our teeth all night long

I licked the grains from her ear taste the heat in my mouth she

turned the screws in my knees and put the breaks in my songs

breaks in my songs I'm alright what you gonna do I went to

California to get away from you I'm alright seen all I got to

see get into California via Tennessee Tennessee

it could be a little money maker it could be evangelism it could be that I'm

nothin' but a tourist and I can't get any traction in Los

Angeles I'm alright what you gonna do I went to California to

get away from you I'm alright seen all I got to see I sleep in

California and dream in Tennessee Tennessee if your lookin' for

grace you're in the wrong F!in' place I am a land mine and I hit a

bomb shell I need a wide open space and a good lookin' face I am a tourist and

you be my good time I'm alright what you gonna do I went to

California to get away from you I'm alright I'm on central time

holdin' strangers' hands across state lines I'm alright what you

gonna do I went to California 'cause I'm better than you I'm

alright seen all I got to see I chewed up California and spit

out Tennessee Tennessee Breaks in my songs
