Keb Mo - House In California Lyrics

We were sick and tired of Buffalo
Tired of freezin' and shovelin' snow
So we packed it up
And moved out to the coast
To find us a house in California

Something at the beach or Hollywood
3 or 4 bedrooms sound real good
Don't have to have a pool or a veranda
Just a simple little house in California

Banker said son "what do you do"
I play guitar down at the rendezvous
He said "boy you need to be a big time actor
Or a corporate lawyer"
If you want to buy a house in California

It don't snow and it don't rain
And everyday looks the same
But before you pack your things let me warn ya'
It's the land of milk and honey
But you better have good money
If you're looking for a house in California

I got three jobs, my wife's got two
The kid is flippin' burgers at the local drive thru
We're all doin' everything we can
We're saving for a house in California

Then one day things started shakin'
Sky went dark and the earth was quaking
Then over night it became alarmin'
How the prices dropped on a house in California

Well it needs a roof and it needs a plumber
Yeah, yeah it's a real fixer upper
Friends back east said somebody shoulda warned ya'
But I finally got my house in California

It don't snow and it don't rain
And everyday looks the same
But before you pack your things let me warn ya'
It's the land of milk and honey
But you better have good money
If you're looking for a house in California
