Kenny Chesney California song lyrics

She lived at the end of a little dirt road

In a house where secrets go untold

Barefoot in a cotton dress, dark hair in a tangled mess

And a head full of crazy dreams

She said

I'm going to California

A place where the sun always shines

I'm goin to California

And I'm leavin' everything behind

You can't help, but feel a little bit touched

When your daddy loves you a little too much

You can wish on four leaf clovers, but all the fields have been plowed over

And there's nothin left to do but fly away

I'm going to California

A place where the sun always shines

I'm goin to California

And I'm leavin' everything behind

Stars burn like candles on that two-lane highway

She made her wish, and disappeared on her 18th birthday

And she said

I'm going to California

A place where the sun always shines

I'm goin to California

And I'm leavin' everything behind

I'm goin to California

And I'm leavin' everything behind

Oh California

I'm goin to California

Oh California

Leavin' it all behind

California...
