Nothing Good Comes Out of California (Remastered)

What's a heartland girl doin' way out there
They say you'll get tattooed and purple hair
You'll miss the Friday night lights and the county fair and that's a pity
They say traffic there is a perfect mess, how you get around's anybody's guess
You gotta wheel and deal in stiletto heels in the city
They say it's beautiful but it ain't always pretty

Nothing good comes out of California
They'll convert your heart and we'll have to reform ya
Dance with the devil in the city of angels
They don't know the words to the star spangled
Girl, you can't say we didn't try to warn ya
That nothing good comes out of California

In motel off Heartache and Vine
The seat's in the shadow of the Hollywood sign
I see a few stars from time to time and take a picture
Oh, and I gotta dream burnin' inside my heart
Songs to write on this guitar
No matter where I go I never get too far from their whispers

Nothing good comes out of California
They'll convert your heart and we'll have to reform ya
Can't trust a place where the sun shines all the time
With plastic smiles they sip their wine
Girl, you can't say we didn't try to warn ya
That nothing good comes out of California

Well I Guess I'll have to write a song that makes my hometown sing along
The cynics and critics, I'll prove 'em wrong

Nothing good comes out of California
They'll convert your heart and we'll have to reform ya
Dance with the devil in the city of angels
They don't know the words to the star spangled
Girl, you can't say we didn't try to warn ya (Didn't try to warn ya)
That nothing good comes out, I tried to make you proud, even if nothing good comes out of California
Down in California
