Umm-hm
Baby, don't you wanna go?
'Take your time now an make this one right'
Um-mm-hm, baby don't you wanna go?
'Go where?'
To that land of California, sweet old Chicago
Yeah
Now, did ya get that letter
Dropped in yo' backyard?
I wants to come to see you
Yo' best man got me barred
Cry, ooh-ooo!
Baby, don't you want to go?
To that land Californ', sweet old Chicago
Now, I don't drink because I'm dry
I drink because I'm blue
The reason I drink, pretty mama
Now, I can't get 'long wit you
Mmm-mm-mm
Baby, don't you want to go?
Yeah
To that land a Californ', sweet old Chicago
Now, look-a-here, baby

You can get my lovin'
If you just let him go

Baby, don't you want to go-oooh?
To that land a Californ', sweet old Chicago
'Planned on May'

Baby, don't you wanna go?
'Go where?'
To that land of Californ', sweet old Chicago

Now, my-my mama tol' me
Papa, startin' to cry

To have them women yo' side
She cried, 'Look-a-here, babe
I know you wants to go'
To that land of Californ', sweet old Chicago
Oh, be-be-be-ba
Kee-da-da-da.
