Lyrics
VERSE 1:
California state of mine,
Why can't I leave you behind?
Stuck en Route 666,
Just until I get my kix.
PRE-CHORUS:
Well I, I don't know why...
I, I keep on getting high...
CHORUS:
Can you take me away from California?
Cause I got LA on my brain...
Champagne, Cocaine,
And a whole lot of other things...
Why does she keep asking me my last name?
VERSE 2:
If the California sun don't shine,
Maybe I can leave place behind.
But if I don't and lose that faith,
The California sun won't wait.
PRE-CHORUS:
Well I, I don't know why...
I, I keep on getting high...
CHORUS:
Can you take me away from California?
Cause I got LA on my brain...
Champagne, Cocaine,
And a whole lot of other things...
Why does she keep asking me my last name?
BRIDGE:
Another Hollywood cantina bar
Well I'm just getting started about last call
Got a late night date with my black card
Chorus
Pre- Chorus
