California woman
Hanging heavy on my mind
Never found another like her
Guess she was just one of a kind
She never wrapped no strings around me
She could treat a man so fine
I still see her golden hair
And the Caliifornia sunshine
Mississippi rain falling on my head
No California woman sleeping in my bed
Makes me wanna move on, leave all this behind
I need my California woman and the California sunshine
Golden California beaches
Knocking on a beach house door
They say that California woman
She don't live here anymore
They say she left with a stranger
Leaving nothing left behind
She buried all my dreams here
In the California sunshine
Mississippi rain falling on my head
No California woman sleeping in my bed
Makes me wanna move on, leave all this behind
I need my California woman and the California sunshine
I need my California woman and the California sunshine
