Got on board
a westbound
seven forty seven
Didn't think
before deciding
what to do
Ooh, that talk
of opportunities,
TV breaks and movies
Rang true, sure rang true
Seems it never rains
in southern California
Seems I've often heard
that kind of talk before
It never rains
in California, but girl
don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
Out of work,
I'm out of my head
Out of self respect,
I'm out of bread
I'm underloved,
I'm underfed,
I wanna go home
It never rains
in California, but girl
don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
Will you tell
the folks back home
I nearly made it
Had offers
but don't know
which one to take
Please don't tell 'em
how you found me
Don't tell 'em
how you found me
Gimme a break,
give me a break
Seems it never rains
in southern California
Seems I've often heard
that kind of talk before
It never rains
in California, but girl
don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
