My California

I came from tailgate parties Gravel roads and horses noses led me to my door I came from swimming in the lake under the starlight Where you can't see, any city lights I'm not from Hollywood I don't live near the beach When I say California It's always what they ask me I don't need to move to Nashville To write a bluegrass song I've always been a country girl All along, In my California I came from the real green river The one from the Credence song, it's just a mile away I came from running through the fields Under the moonlight Where you can't see any city lights I'm not from Hollywood I don't live near the beach When I say California It's always what they ask me I don't need to move to Nashville To write a bluegrass song I've always been a country girl All along, In my California I came from tailgate parties Gravel roads and horses noses led me to my door I came from swimming in the lake under the starlight Where you can't see, any city lights I'm not from Hollywood I don't live near the beach When I say California It's always what they ask me I don't need to move to Nashville To write a bluegrass song I've always been a country girl All along, In my California When the orchard is in bloom That's when I think of you And all the places we've been Now I know we can't go back again I'm not from Hollywood I don't live near the beach When I say California It's always what they ask me I don't need to move to Nashville To write a bluegrass song I've always been a country girl All along, In my California
