California Country Boy

Ain't no palm trees where I come from

No big waves crashing on the shore

No grid-locked traffic, no movie stars, no

In the part of California I come from

We got oil fields in the Central Valley

We cowboys out in the Mojave

Selena Valley, yeah where I come from

We got farms, far as the eye can see

Now I got good friends out in Texas

And I got family in Tennessee

But this here country boy's from California

Ain't no place I'd rather be

Ain't no place I'd rather be

From Pasa Robles to the Owens Valley

From Manchester on down the Salton Sea

It's where I pick this guitar, it's where I write these songs

Ain't no place that I'd rather be

Yeah I got good friends out in Texas

And I got family in Tennessee

But this here country boy's from California

Ain't no place I'd rather be

Ain't no place I'd rather be

Ain't no palm trees, ain't no movie stars

In the part of California I come from
