california blues blue yodel 4

Merle Haggard

Well I m goin to California
Where they sleep out every night
I m goin to California
Where they sleep out every night
I m leaving you, mama
Cause you know you don t treat me right

Let me tell you somethin
Mama, that you don t know
Let me tell you somethin
Good gal, that you don t know
Well, I m a do right papa
And got a home everywhere I go

Yeah
I got the California blues and I m
Sure gonna leave you here
Lord, Lord
I got the California blues and I m
Sure gonna leave you here
I may ride the blind
I aint got no railroad fare

Listen to me, mama
While I sing this song
Listen to your daddy
Sing you this lonesome song
You got me wearied now
But I won t be wearied long

I got the California blues and I m
Sure gonna leave you here
Hey, hey, hey
I got the California blues and I m
Sure gonna leave you here
I may ride the blind
I aint got no railroad fare
