Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers - The Independent

California Breakdown

Wheels on the bus
Don't wanna go round
We got another California Breakdown
We was doin' alright
Till everything went wrong
Now we're stuck on the side of the road
Where we don't belong
It's the California Breakdown
California Breakdown
Jess is trying out
For a little bit part
This time she really nails it
She plays it from the heart
This could be her big break
The one she's waiting for
But now her only take
Is lying on the cutting room floor
It's the California Breakdown
California Breakdown
Feeling all alone far away from home
Trying to figure out
How she's gonna make it out in this town
California Breakdown
California Breakdown
Jimmy's writing songs
Out in Hollywood
He just needs connections
He knows his tunes are good
Then he hears his song
It's in a picture show
Then he knows he's been wronged
While he's sitting all alone
And he's watching the credits roll
Breakdown
Breakdown
Breakdown
It's a California Breakdown
Standing on the road where your dreams got poached???
Trying to figure out how you're gonna make it count here in this town
California Breakdown
California Breakdown
Breakdown
California Breakdown
Breakdown
California Breakdown
