California here I come
I'm keeping up with the sun
I sort of like it here but
Oh hell the truth be told
I'm the only one

I could have been a better man
I could have tried
I could have had a better plan
And gone out in style
I could always get around
When times were high

No one ever comes around
People go for bigger towns
They take a look and talk a while
And the truth be told
They always hit the road

I could have been a better man
I could have tried
I could have had a better plan
And gone out in style
I could always get around
When times were high

I could have been a better man
I could have tried
In never ever ever land
My stakes are high
And I've been lonely as hell
