Said I wanna be somebody
Not someone who said they know somebody
You know I know you know I know I got it
Man, his feet don't quit (feet don't quit)
I see the palm trees swayin'
Picture-perfect, that's the part they're playin'
But they ain't coughin' up the bills I'm payin'
So I'll stay on my shit (on my sh–)

I've been low on the highway
Higher than an airplane
Dreams so big, burnin' hotter than a fireplace
Win some, lose some, least I did it my way
Ride them ups and downs

In California
(California, California, Cali, Cali)
Ride them ups and downs in California
(California, California, Cali, Cali)
Ride them ups and downs

My skin be thick like diamonds
Two, four, seven, that Sun be shinin'
Body all my life from the hills I'm climbin'
Ain't no magic tricks (magic tricks)

I've been low on the highway
Higher than an airplane
Dreams so big, burnin' hotter than a fireplace
Win some, lose some, least I did it my way
Ride them ups and downs

In California
(California, California, Cali, Cali)
Ride them ups and downs in California
(California, California, Cali, Cali)
Ride them ups and downs in California

(Ooh, California)
(Ooh, California)
(Ooh, California)
(Ooh, California)

California (ooh)
(California, California, Cali, Cali)
Ride them ups and downs in California (California)
(California, California, Cali, Cali)
Ride them ups and downs in California

Ooh, baby, in California, Cali-California
In California, Cali-California
Ride them ups and downs
