[ Don Rich ]
Hello California California here I come
Well here I am on my way back home with my discharge in my hand

It sure is good have might to be back on solid land
I didn't see a woman for eighteen days when I crawled aboard that ship
And seein' all the girls in mini skirts is givin' my heart a lift
Hello California you sure are place to see
Goodbye Arizona you're just a little too hot for me
Well New York City and Albuquerque sure was a lotta fun
Hello California California here I come
[ ac.guitar ]
Well when I left home about a year ago I sure wasn't much of a man
And there's still a lotta things in this old world that I don't understand
But there's one thing that I'm certain of I should have figured it out before
Oh when I get back to Calirnia I ain't never gonna leave no more
Hello California...
Hello California California here I come
