[00:08.80] 锘縒e were sick and tired of Buffalo,
[00:11.94] tired of freezin鈥 and shovelin鈥 snow
[00:13.20]
[00:14.32] So we packed it up and moved out to the coast,
[00:17.31]
[00:19.00] to find us a house in California.
[00:21.62]
[00:24.00] Somethin鈥 at the beach or Hollywood,
[00:25.75]
[00:26.37] three of four bedrooms sound real good,
[00:28.06]
[00:28.81] Don鈥檛 have to have a pool or river run,
[00:30.80]
[00:33.55] just a simple little house in California.
[00:35.03]
[00:38.66] The bank said, 鈥渟on, what do you do?鈥,
[00:40.92] I said I play guitar down at the Rendez-vous,
[00:42.00]
[00:43.76] He said, 鈥渂oy you got to be a big time actor or a corporate lawyer,
[00:50.00]
[00:52.85] if you want to buy a house in California!鈥
[00:57.07]
[00:57.82] {Refrain}
[00:58.04] 鈥楥ause it don鈥檛 snow and it don鈥檛 rain,
[01:00.29] ever鈥 day looks the same,
[01:01.08]
[01:02.82] and before you pack your thangs, let me warn ya鈥,
[01:04.83] It鈥檚 the land of milk and honey,
[01:07.45] but you better have good money,
[01:09.39] If you鈥檙e lookin鈥 for a house in California!
[01:12.00]
[01:21.15] Well I got me a job, my wife鈥檚 got two,
[01:23.71]

[01:26.09]

[01:28.71]
[01:30.96] we savin鈥 for a house in California.
[01:33.00]
[01:36.08] Then one day the bank starts shakin鈥,
[01:38.52] the sky went dark and the earth was a quakin鈥
[01:40.00]
[01:41.18] Then o鈥檙 night, it be came alarmin鈥,
[01:43.93]
