[Chorus]
Take me back to California
West Coast, I'm coming home
Take me back to California
Right where I started from

[Refrain]
California
That's where I lived my whole life
California
Bury me there when I die

[Chorus]
Take me back to California
That's where my body will lie
Take me back to California
That's where I'll go when I die

[Verse 1]
I've been sticking it out
For one thousand miles on the 101 South
The distance feels like it kills
From San Francisco to the Hollywood Hills

[Refrain]
California
That's where I lived my whole life
California
Bury me there when I die
[Chorus]
Take me back to California
West Coast, I'm coming home
Take me back to California
Right where I started from

[Verse 2]
I'm coming home to Cali
From the redwood trees all the way to the Valley
The distance feels like it kills
From San Francisco to the Hollywood Hills

[Refrain]
California
That's where I lived my whole life
California
Bury me there when I die

[Chorus]
Take me back to California
West Coast, I'm coming home
Take me back to California
Right where I started from

[Outro]
California
Bury me there when I die
