Lyrics:

Im goin to california, where they sleep out every night, yeah.

Im goin to california, where they sleep out every night, yeah.

Im leavin you, mama, cause you know you dont treat me right.



Let me tell you somethin, mama that you dont know,

Let me tell you somethin, good gal that you dont know,

Yeah, Im a do-right papa, and got a home everywhere I go.



I got the california blues, and Im sure gonna leave here, lord, lord.

I got the california blues, and Im sure gonna leave you here,

I may rob you blind, I aint got not railroad fare.

Come on in here.



Listen to me, mama, while I sing this song, lord.

Listen to your daddy sing you this lonesome song.

You got me worried now, but I wont be worried long.



I got the california blues, and Im sure gonna leave here, hey, hey, hey.

I got the california blues, and Im sure gonna leave you here,

I may rob you blind, I aint got not railroad fare.

Honey, get over here.
