California State Line

I left Texarkana with nothing but
Dust in my veins
Been a month of Sundays
Since I last felt the rains
I picked up my bags and
Hopped on a western bound dog
By dawn OK city
Covered in a blanket of fog
Pushed through Amarillo
Where the wildflowers grow
We passed Tucumcari and lit out of
New Mexico
Well I don't have an answer
But I'll ask anyhow
Why she stayed behind
And what is she doing right now

And when the sun begins to shine
That means we're near the
California State Line
California State Line

Rolling up flagstaff
The chariot shifts to Low gears
Look in the mirror
And I'm going back 30 years
Cross the Colorado you know
That I soon will be there
Now the sign says Needles can't you feel that warm desert air

And when that sun begins to shine
That means were on the
California state line

And when that sun begins to shine
That means were on the
California state line
I played my part way back in my prime
And it's still on the
California fault line
I'm feeling fine
