Take me back to California
West Coast, I'm comin' home
Take me back to California
Right where I started from
Pre-Chorus
Cali-fornia
That's where I lived my whole life
Cali-fornia
Bury me there when I die
Take me back to California
That's where my body will lie
Take me back to California
That's where I'll go when I die
I've been stickin' it out
For one-thousand miles on the 101 South
The distance feels like it kills
From San Francisco to the Hollywood Hills
Pre-Chorus
Cali-fornia
That's where I lived my whole life
Cali-fornia
Bury me there when I die
Take me back to California
West Coast, I'm comin' home
Take me back to California
Right where I started from
I'm comin' home to Cali
From the redwood trees, all the way to the Valley
The distance feels like it kills
From San Francisco to the Hollywood Hills
Pre-Chorus
Cali-fornia
That's where I lived my whole life
Cali-fornia
Bury me there when I die
Take me back to California
West Coast, I'm comin' home
Take me back to California
Right where I started from
Cali-fornia
Bury me there when I die
