the Verses:
Your good words ring hollow on these deaf old ears,
Your sympathy sours, on a heart filled with tears.
I’m out of control, I’ve stripped all my gears.
If they try to warn ya, it’s Blue California.

Seems like the highways was all headed west,
As for my future, well I couldn’t guess.
What lay 2000 miles away from the nest,
If they try to warn ya, it’s Blue California.

I got holes in the soles of my last pair of shoes,
Found a dollar today and I’m wondering whose.
Gonna claim it by name, and leave me nothing to lose,
If they try to warn ya, it’s Blue California.

Lord I got the new California Blues

the Chorus:
It’s so blue, like the ocean I see,
and the sky above, and the feeling’s got to me.
There no use in crying, and no one to tell,
'Cept the empty city streets, and the last mission bell.
