Bury Me in California

Bury me in California
Bury me beneath my debts
I gave it all to be an artist
Then forgotten when I'm dead

Mm hmm

Spread my ashes across the country
From Minnesota to New Mexico
Born in Nebraska, lived in Colorado
None of them I call my own

Mm hmm

I gave it all to the love of my life
And she gave me my soul
At times a harsh and demanding wife
Who'll lay me to rest in my home

Bury me here in L.A.
Where everyone means what they say
How your friends can't wait to see you
Unless they're busy on that day

Mm hmm

I once hoped for fame and fortune
Have my ego stroked like the rest
But I'll die obscure in isolation
With my principles around my neck

Mm hmm

I gave it all to the love of my life
And she gave me my soul
Found me in the darkest of nights
And I'll never walk one more day alone

Bury me in California
Where my widow will love again
