Too much hat and not enough cattle

Too much car seat, not enough saddle

Too far gone, but not too drunk to dream

I'm just living this California Country scene

Verse 2:
Too much rock and not enough roll
Too much talk and not enough soul
Not enough time to walk a country mile
I'm just living in California Country style

Verse 3:
Too much time and not enough miles
Too much work and not enough smiles
But it's not to late to come back home today
I'm just living the California County way
But it's not to late to come back home to stay
I'm just living the California County way
I'm just living the California County way
I'm just living the California County way
