Please don't go away
i won't be left alone
tomorrow maybe california
but today right here is your home

[pre-chorus x2]
let's pack up our bags and get on the road
let's ride, ride, ride!
let's lock all the doors and head out�
to california!

We'll grab some food on our way
we don't need much cash at all
we can hit ohio by today
can you hear california call?

[pre-chorus x2]

[chorus x2]
i left you by the water
i left you by the alter
the mountains are too high
the valleys are too low
but it's fine in california
to california we must go!

[pre-chorus x2]

[chorus x2]

i'm going home�
i'm going home�
i'm going home�
i'm going home�

i'm going home

[pre-chorus x2]
