I stretched myself across four states
New lands, west coast, where my dreams lay
I trade amber clay roads for the
Sea foam and the endless sun rays

‘Cause I was never told that I wasn’t gonna get
The things I want the most
But people always say, “If it hasn’t happened yet
Then maybe you should go”

Come get me out of California
No leaves are brown
I miss the seasons in Missouri
My dying town
Thought I’d be cool in California
I’d make you proud
To think I almost had it going
But I let you down

Too hard, to find reasons to stay
Even true love could not persuade

‘Cause I was never told that I wasn’t gonna get
The things I want the most
But people always say, “If it hasn’t happened yet
Then maybe you should go”

Come get me out of California
No leaves are brown
I miss the seasons in Missouri
My dying town
Thought I’d be cool in California
I’d make you proud
To think I almost had it going
But I let you down

Come get me out
Come get me out
Come get me out
Come get me out

Come get me out of California
No leaves are brown
I miss the seasons in Missouri
My dying town
Thought I’d be cool in California
I’d make you proud
To think I almost had it going
But I let you down

Casual

My friends call me a loser ‘Cause I’m still hanging around I’ve heard so many rumors That I’m just a girl that you bang on your couch I thought …
