I need someone to live with me
To keep my bed warm
And keep my shorts clean

I need a maid to give for free
And sew patches on my jeans

I dreamed I saw my cowgirls housewife
I was driving in my pick up to LA
I wanna love you while I can, Babe
Before I become an old man

Southern California brings me down
Southern California brings me down
Southern California brings me down

Oh, I need someplace to go
Oh, north Ontario
It's safer than Alabama
It’s safer than Ohio -oh

(Solo)

Gonna go home now where I can glow
With the cowgirl of my dreams
Gonna stay so now
Just stare out my basement window and scream
Southern California brings me down
Southern California brings me down
Southern California brings me down
Ooo, gotta got away now

Southern California brings me down, ooo baby
Topanga Canyon freaks you won't see me around no more
