Lately, I've been low
Things been moving slow
Could not tell you why
Maybe too much paradiseSomething came calling
And I knew this time I had to goCalifornia
I don't even know you
And you've taken me away from homeOld Magnolia
I'll never get over you
Feeling's running straight to my bonesSomeday I'll be coming home
Someday I'll be coming home
With a cast Iron Soul
It was a winding mountain road
Where the sun shines and the air is cold
Another tired town
Where them old folks hang aroundThey look me in the eye
And try to pass me down what they knowCalifornia
I don't even know you
And you've taken me away from homeOld Magnolia
I'll never get over you
Feeling's running straight to my bonesSomeday I'll be coming home
Someday I'll be coming home
With a cast iron soul
I can see the water
I can taste the sea
Keep on moving farther
From where I need to beCalifornia
I don't even know you
And you've taken me away from homeOld Magnolia
I'll never get over you
Feeling's running straight to my bones
