Hail from a town out in California,
In a valley just east of The Bay.
Raised here and I was born here,
And when I'm not I don't feel the same.
Take me up the mountains.
Then let's drive the coast.
Oh California, California,
My home sweet home.
The party don't stop in California
We keep the candle burning at each end
We're all sweating, working hard all week.
We're all sweating, working hard for the weekend.
Take me up the mountains,
Then let's drive the coast.
Oh California,
The only place I call home.
There's gotta be somethin'
That keeps me movin'
Could it be the setting sun?
Over the place I'm from.
Could it be the stars above?
Shining on the Pacific coast.
Could it be the place that I love?
The place I love most.
Hail from a town out in California.
In a valley just east of The Bay.
Raised here and I was born here,
And when I'm not I don't feel the same.
Take me up the mountains.
Then let's drive the coast.
Oh California, California,
My home sweet home.
The party don't stop in California
We keep the candle burning at each end
We're all sweating, working hard all week.
We're all sweating, working hard for the weekend.
Take me up the mountains,
Then let's drive the coast.
Oh California,
The only place I call home.
There's gotta be somethin'
That keeps me movin'
Could it be the setting sun?
Over the place I'm from.
Could it be the stars above?
Shining on the Pacific coast.
Could it be the place that I love?
The place I love most.
Hail from a town out in California.
