|
Well he told me |
|
The highway called for him to hit it. |
|
So that's what he did. |
|
Now he regrets he ever did it now. |
|
To California. |
|
He said that's where he'd find his fortune. |
|
And where it's warmer |
|
The weather's warmer and the girls are scorching hot. |
|
He quit his job down at the diner. |
|
And then he loaded up his SUV. |
|
Just like a modern 49er. |
|
Except for the Schlager and the PCP. |
|
To California. |
|
He said he'd make it there come hell |
|
Or come high water. |
|
He isn't doing very well. |
|
He made it to Atlantic City. |
|
To try to double what he brought. |
|
Lost it to a voodoo girl named Kitty. |
|
Totaled the truck out in the parking lot. |
|
So he decided |
|
He was determined not to turn back. No way. |
|
So guess what he did? |
|
Well he snuck aboard an Amtrak Train. |
|
To California. |
|
He said that's where he'd find his fortune. |
|
And where it's warmer. |
|
The weather's warmer and the girls are scorching hot. |
|
To California. |
|
Just got a postcard in the mail. |
|
"Just to inform ya. |
|
I'm the LA County Jail. Right now." |
