Southern California Songtext
von Tammy Wynette feat. George Jones

You always said someday you′d go to live in Southern California
And me I'd stay right here in Tennessee
You always talked about the better days in Southern California
But if you′ll stay in Tennessee, I promise there'll be better days with me

It's not that I don′t love you
But I hear the call from Southern California
There′s something I can't find in Tennessee

Silver screens and limousines
They wait for me in Southern California
Though you′ve been so good to me
The time has come you'll have to set me free


Tomorrow when you leave
You′ll take my heart to Southern California
But just remember I'll be here
To keep your heart with me until we see

Well, it′s been five years, an' I guess I've cried a million tears
Lookin′ out the window of this little room
Right over that flashin′ neon sign that says, "Bar"
It's almost midnight, an′ time to go downstairs and go to work
I wonder how he's doin′ in Tennessee?

Well, here I sit by the window of this big old lonely mansion
Lookin' out over the smokies and on in everything I can see
Oh, I guess by now, she′s found what she was lookin' for
And as I look at this old faded photograph of the girl that I still love
I wonder if she ever thinks of me

But the weather's good in Southern California
