I was born in California

Raised up by the trees

Came out from the mountain

Heart's following the breeze

One more night I'll be sleeping 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

Yeah those can mend my soul

'Cause I was born in California

Raised up by the trees

Came out from the mountain

Heart's 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 know baby it is coming

'Cause I've been gone for far too long

'Cause I was born in California

Raised up by the trees

Came out from the mountain

Heart's following the breeze

Yeah I was born in California

Raised up by the trees

Came out from the mountain

Heart's following the breeze
