California, Missouri

I graduated with 86 sheep I was the black one

If there was a reputation to be out in this town

I had the bad one

I was born in the wrong place in the wrong time

But sometimes the wrong way makes you the right kind

I was all in a hurry

And if I got past

Then I won't stop like I would get a head start on anything

That hurt me

Anywhere I go don't feel like you was that good or bad

I don't know if I'm wrong in a way

I don't know if I'm wrong and told ya

I guess that's what you get when you're born

And stuck in California

California Missouri

I just really hope one day that you're gonna love me

I was California dreamin' from the middle of the country

I look for you in the best of them

And every face and city skyline

I got out of your way

But did you get out of my

I was all in a hurry

And if I got past

Then I won't stop like I would get a head start on anything

That hurt me

Anywhere I go don't feel like you was that good or bad

I don't know if I'm wrong in a way

I don't know if I'm wrong and told ya

I guess that's what you get when you're born

And stuck in California

California Missouri

Ain't no shining lights or palm trees

There's more stars in the sky than stars in the streets

It's bittersweet it's bittersweet it's bittersweet

There's too many goals and memories

I was all in a hurry

And if I got past

Then I won't stop like I nothing could hurt me

Anywhere I go

Don't feel like you was that good or bad

I don't know if I'm wrong in a way

I don't know if I'm wrong and told ya

I guess that's what you get when you're born

And stuck in California
