California Guy
I live in California
Barely getting by
That's pretty irrelevant
But that's just the type of guy
That I am
That I am
I didn't know anybody in San Francisco Bay
I thought I'd move south and settle near a beach
To get away
But it's in L.A.
So when I go and tell you that I've been surfing I know it's a lie
I can never be as tan as the beach boys I see as I drive by
I wanna play a show on Sunset man why do I even try
I know I don't belong here I'll never fit in
I'm not a California Guy
I'm from Southeast Missouri
A town you wouldn't know
Out here there's a boardwalk
Back home all we had was a rodeo
At least it snows
So when I go and tell you that I've been surfing I know it's a lie
I can never be as tan as the beach boys I see as I drive by
I wanna play a show on Sunset man why do I even try
I know I don't belong here I'll never fit in
I'm not a California Guy
Don't waste your time
Don't waste your time on me
Because I'm going home
So when I go and tell you that I've been surfing I know it's a lie
I can never be as tan as the beach boys I see as I drive by
I wanna play a show on Sunset man why do I even try
I know I don't belong here I'll never fit in
I'm not a California Guy
So when I go and tell you that I've been surfing I know it's a lie
I can never be as tan as the beach boys I see as I drive by
I wanna play a show on Sunset man why do I even try
I know I don't belong here I'll never fit in
I'm not a California Guy
