I stretchedmyself across four states， New lands west coastwhere my dreams lay， I trade amberclay roads for the， Sea foam and theendless 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。
