I was born in California
Raised up by the trees
Came out from the mountain
Heart’s a following the breeze
One more night I’ll be sleepin' here out in west Virginia
Don’t seem right for me to be so far from home
Would be nice to march my feet down to old sequoia
Ya those pines and those hills can mend my soul
‘Cause I was born in California
Raised up by the trees
Came out from the mountain
Heart’s a following the breeze
One more day one more town one more drive and I’ll be
On my way back to the fields where I belong
Cross those states cross my heart and hope that the end is comin'
‘Cause I’ve been gone
For far too long
Where I was born in California
Raised up by the trees
Came out from the mountain
Heart’s following the breeze
