California Ain't For Ya

(album: Drew Parker - 2018)

There's a Delta plane landing to L.A
Non-stop first class flight one way
I know you're excited to finally be going
Trying to hide it, but it's still showing
You really wanna go, I won't ask you to stay
Girl you gotta know if there ever comes a day

That California ain't for ya
If palm trees start to bore ya
You start missing your mama
Or the boy who told you to chase your dreams
If the stars don't shine there
Like they do on a back road
If you'd rather see the sun rise here
Than watch it set on the west coast
If life out there ain't what you thought it'd be
If California ain't for ya, you still got Georgia
And you still got me

Never thought watching you pack that old red and black
Bulldog sweatshirt would hurt so bad
Rose Bowl, Pasadena, Catalina Islands
I'm sure it's cool but it's no St. Simons
You say you wish I'd go, but you know I can't
Girl you gotta know if there every comes a day

That California ain't for ya
If palm trees start to bore ya
You start missing your mama
Or the boy who told you to chase your dreams
If the stars don't shine there
Like they do on a back road
If you'd rather see the sun rise here
Than watch it set on the west coast
If life out there ain't what you thought it'd be
If California ain't for ya, if good weather starts to bore ya
You start missing your mama
Or the boy who told you to chase your dreams
If the stars don't shine there
Like they do on a back road
If you'd rather see the sun rise here
Than watch it set on the west coast
If life out there ain't what you thought it'd be
If California ain't for ya, you still got Georgia
If California ain't for ya, you still got Georgia
And you still got me
And you still got me
