Raised up on mid-western dreams
Only a few shall get
What everyone shall need

I took my family's burden
Strapped it to my chest
A few hundred bucks,

And a kiss for luck
And I pointed my dreams west


To California
Come rescue me
California

I am almost free

I kept on driving to the setting sun

Galaxies of angels
Welcome everyone
I took my heart out of its box

Attached it to my sleeve
Well, I will be here every night
Because that's what I believe


In California
Come rescue me

California
I am almost free


I will find my love
I will know my peace
I will seek my truth

I am almost free
I am almost free...


I am almost free
I am almost free
I am almost free


In California
I am almost free

In California
I am almost free
(Rescue me)

California
I am almost free
