I stretched myself across four states

New lands, west coast, where my dreams lay

I trade amber clay roads for the

Sea foam and the endless sun rays.

'cause I was never told that I wasn't gonna get

The things I want the most

But people always say, "If it hasn't happened yet

Then maybe you should go".

Come get me out of california

No leaves are brown

I miss the seasons in missouri

My dying town

Thought I'd be cool in california

I'd make you proud

To think I almost had it going

But I let you down.

Too hard, to find reasons to stay

Even true love could not persuade.

'cause I was never told that I wasn't gonna get

The things I want the most

But people always say, "If it hasn't happened yet

Then maybe you should go".

Come get me out of california

No leaves are brown

I miss the seasons in missouri

My dying town

Thought I'd be cool in california

I'd make you proud

To think I almost had it going

But I let you down.

Come get me out

Come get me out

Come get me out

Come get me out.

Come get me out of california

No leaves are brown

I miss the seasons in missouri

My dying town

Thought I'd be cool in california

I'd make you proud

To think I almost had it going

But I let you down.
