Back To California Lyrics - Music - Carole King

BACK TO CALIFORNIA 

by Carole King 

I've been feelin' down in Atlanta 

Immobile in Alabam 

I'd rather be in traction 

Than to be here where I am 

Oh you Georgia red clay 

ANd green Virginia pines 

I've got to make it home somehow 

Before I lose my mind

CHORUS: 

So, won't you carry me back to California 

I've been on the road too long 

Take me to the West Coast, daddy 

And let me be where I belong 

Photos 

Hey now, Philly, you street city 

Been down by the railroad track 

I know that you can be a sweet city 

But I won't soon be back 

Haystack towns and somkestown cities 

Are nothin' I want to see 

My own house on high ground 

Is the only place I wnat to be 

(CHORUS)
