I'm on the road again
Feeling lonely and blue
And I just can't keep my mind on anything else but you
Well it feels like I haven't kissed you since God knows when
And I just can't wait 'til I get back to California again, yeah
Well, the sun is hot and I've been drivin' for hours
And it's gettin' me down, seein' beer cans instead of flowers
Oh, I wish you were around the bend
And this dusty trip would end
'Cause I can hardly wait 'til I get back to California again
CHORUS:
California
I'm on my way
And when I get back
This time I'm goin' to stay
(Instrumental break)
There was a restaurant by the side of the road
So I pulled on in and had myself a beer just to lighten the load
And the waitress said I looked in need of a friend, uh-huh
And I just can't wait 'til I get back to California again
(Repeat Chorus)
Now I'm days away from your sweet, sweet touch
And I never dreamed that I could miss a woman's love so much
And the songs on the radio - they're makin' be blue
And I just can't wait 'til I get back to California and you
