California Here I Come Lyrics

You
Poor you
Playing so long but you're still not grooving
I see you
running but I see you ain't moving

And me
Pitiful me
I sleep with
both eyes open but I'm just not seeing
The forest let alone the
trees

California here I come
Open up your golden arms
I had enough
of the New York City slums
My brother he went before me
My God watch over
me
California here I come

Can we stop
Obsessing
There's food on
the table let's count our blessings
How come we wanna be messing
Messing
around
With the wild wild west
Must be a better life than this

How
come
Some people got it all
Some people got none
I been banging my head
against
The writing on the wall
But now
I just wanna have
fun

California here I come
Open up your golden arms
I had enough
of the New York City slums
My brother he went before me
My God watch over
me
California here I come

California I'll be there
Let me fall into
your hair
I won't be guilty for my New York City care
My sister come along
with me
Our God is offering our share
California I'll be there
