there’s no christmas in california
it’s plain apparent from geography
when there’s no scene of snow
or even hint of cold
California keeps ya warm
There’s no fires in fireplaces,
no need for coats or knitted things
When every tree stays evergreen
Forgetfulness is easy
California keeps ya company
when you’re callin,
when you ring
that’s 3000 miles of wire shaking
near the ocean, crashing waves
make a static so loud
it’s really hard to hear here anyways
and that’s a california holiday
when you’re callin,
when you ring
that’s 3000 miles of wire shaking
near the ocean, crashing waves
make a static so loud
it’s really hard to hear here anyways
California probably don’t need me
but then ol Oregon gives December sunshine,
in all that crystal clear christmas cold,
it’s a lifetime away
but i could use a holiday
and california ain’t got my baby
