"California Can" lyrics

"California Can"

You're probably halfway through the desert
Found a neon light
Crossing the country
Bet I barely ever cross your mind
No, never tried much to forget you
But I think I might give it a go

I picked you flowers from the garden
At my mamma's house
You show me two faces
You smile and then you throw 'em out
And it's getting sad the way I let you let me hang around
Think I should go

'Cause you're one foot out the door
I hang on every word you say
Two feet glued to the floor
But you don't give me no time-a-day

California-fornia can have ya, have ya
California-fornia can have ya

Talk to a lampshade like person talking back at me
'Cause you don't appear or show up here
Or visit in my dreams
I'm going mad the way I let you have a hold on me
It's sad, I know

'Cause you're one foot out the door
I hang on every word you say
Two feet glued to the floor
But you don't give me no time-a-day

California-fornia can have ya, have ya
California-fornia can have ya, have ya

I'm not so sure
How much more of this I can take
So if you're gonna wreck my life
Wreck it all the way
Give me the day, week, month, time, place
And say it to my face

You're one foot out the door
I hang on every word you say
Two feet glued to the floor
But you don't give me no time-a-day

California-fornia can have ya, have ya
California-fornia can have ya, have ya
California-fornia can have ya, have ya
California-fornia can have ya
