Old 97s - Just Like California lyrics

rate me

Just like California was not even there

Since it's gone I'm so withdrawn

I ain't got no one nowhere

Right beside the ocean my darlin' Clementine

Well the water got high and she never got dry and

She was a water sign

CHORUS:

Time is on my bad side

Halfway there just wouldn't be fair

So I'm goin' all the way tonight

Halfway there just wouldn't be fair

So I'm goin' all the way tonight

Just like California to make a fool of me

Steal the sideshow, burn the disco

Slide into the sea

I'm a thinking person, and I think that it's wrong

To keep on saying true love's waiting

When true love is long gone

(repeat chorus)
