California woman
Hanging heavy on my mind
Never found another like her

Guess she was just one of a kind

She never wrapped no strings around me

She could treat a man so fine
I still see her golden hair
And the Caliifornia sunshine


Mississippi rain falling on my head
No California woman sleeping in my bed

Makes me wanna move on, leave all this behind
I need my California woman and the California sunshine


Golden California beaches
Knocking on a beach house door
They say that California woman

She don't live here anymore

They say she left with a stranger

Leaving nothing left behind
She buried all my dreams here
In the California sunshine


Mississippi rain falling on my head
No California woman sleeping in my bed

Makes me wanna move on, leave all this behind
I need my California woman and the California sunshine
I need my California woman and the California sunshine
