King of California

They say that I'm the King of California
they tip their hats and wave but hey dont say I didnt warn you
cuz with the other hand they'll clench their fists and when you turn your back they'll stab and twist
it's the life that we must live when we find fortune
Theres a pocket watch in the jacket on my shoulders and I feel its weight as time goes by and I keep on getting older
I reach for gold to place my bet
brush past the half-toked cigarette
it's a lonely life inside my head but still I'm hanging on
I keep waiting
waiting all along for you to cave-in
admit that you were wrong for all you
gave me
for all my pride you were the fall of me
you owe me an apology
I've done some things I aint to proud to say And theres a God above wholl come to judge but whats His hurry anway?
See we've all got scars that prove our test you either walk away or you get left
I remember every word you said and now still Im hanging on
I just keep waiting
waiting all along for you to cave-in
Admit that you where wrong for all you
gave me I swear
for all my pride you were the fall of me
You owe me an apology
I walked a hundred miles in a day
I climbed a mountain staked my flag and I watched it fly away
see Heaven has no time for this man's crooked games or politic
its a lovers war, a takers gift and it all gets washed away and still I'm
Waiting, waiting all along for you
to cave-in
Admit that you were wrong for all you've
Gave me I swear
for all my pride you were the fall of me
And I am here I just keep
waiting
Waiting all along for you to
Cave-in
admit that you were wrong for all you gave me, WELL FUCK MY PRIDE
uuaaahhhhh!
Oh you were the fall of me
You owe me an apology
