Got on board a westbound seven forty-seven

Didn't think before deciding what to do

Ooh that talk of opportunities TV breaks and movies

Rang true sure rang true

Seems it never rains in southern California

Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before

It never rains in California but girl don't they warn ya

It pours man it pours

I'm out of work I'm out of my head

Out of self respect I'm out of bread

I'm underloved I'm underfed I wanna go home

It never rains in California but girl don't they warn ya

It pours man it pours

Will you tell the folks back home I nearly made it

Had offers but didn't know which one to take

Please don't tell them how you found me

Don't tell them how you found me

Give me a break give me a break

Seems it never rains in southern California

Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before

It never rains in California but girl don't they warn ya

It pours man it pour
