Got a long long way to go
Over her dusty roads
Take my old brown suitcase with me
And leave at the break of dawn
I'm not afraid of the distance
Some time on my side
Hear me singing my song
California here I come
When the sun's going down
Silence is the only sound
Oh restless are the nights
When nobody's around
I'm not afraid of the distance
Some time on my side
Hear me singing my song
California here I come
Day after day I'm going
Over her dusty roads
How long will this go on
Until I'm there where I belong
But now troubles are over
I wipe off the dust on my boots
Hear me singing my song
California now I did come
California now I did come
