Lyrics: Wayne Hancock. A-Town Blues. California Blues.

1-2, 1-2-3
(yeah yeah California blues)

Well I'm goin' to California where to sleep out every night
Well I'm goin' to California where to sleep out every night
Although I'm leaving you good gal, you know you don't treat me right
I got the California blues and I'm sure goin' to leave you here (oh lord)
I got the California blues and I'm sure goin' to leave you here
I may ride the line, they got no railroad there

(Davey)
(interlude)
(Tony Wakefield)

Well if you don't want my mama sure don't got a style, yodallay-ey
Well if you don't want my mama sure don't got a style
Well I'm goin' to California where to sleep out every night
Well I'm goin' to California where to sleep out every night
You know I'm leaving you good gal, you know you don't treat me right

(Ricky, start)
(come in Paul)
(Davey)
(some of that California boy, Wakefield)

Well I'm goin' to California where to sleep out every night
Well I'm goin' to California where to sleep out every night
You know I'm leaving you good gal, you know you don't treat me right
Yodallay-ey, yodallay-ey, oh.
