Lyrics Merle Haggard

Merle Haggard

California Blues

Well I'm goin' to California where they sleep out every night yeah

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 something mama that you don't know

Let me tell you something good gal that you don't know

Well I'm a do-right papa and got home everywhere I go yeah.

I got the California blues and I'm sure gonna leave you here Lawd Lawd

I got the California blues and I'm sure gonna leave you here

I may ride the blinds I ain't got no railroad fare.

Listen to me mama while I sing this song

Listen to your daddy sing you this so lonesome song

You got me worried now but I won't be worried too long.

I got the California blues and I'm sure gonna leave you here Lawd Lawd

I got the California blues and I'm sure gonna leave you here

I may ride the blinds I ain't got no railroad fare...
