Be still and know that I am leaving
I know that this is more than a feeling
I would much rather be anywhere but here
But livings not free and money don't grow on trees around here
California's calling my name
I've never ever felt this way
And I know I'm gonna go insane
Long hair and a cigarette
White teeth and an escalade
The girls in my town are looking for somebody to love
But they're not looking for me
I take a step back and count my dollar bills
Well let's just say I'm not well to do
Long hair and a cigarette
White teeth and an escalade
California's calling my name
I've never ever felt this way
And I know I'm gonna go insane
I can hear you calling, oh baby don't go
The sun is setting over yonder baby
Oh, everybody drives a Lexus and I want one so bad
Rubbing elbows with celebrities
I want you to be with me when I step into the ocean for the very first time
I promise I'll make our dreams come true this time
I can see you, come hither baby show me your moves
And we can move away tonight, alright
California's calling my name
I've never ever felt this way
And I know I'm gonna go insane see less
