Southern California Lyrics - Singles - George Jones

George Jones & Tammy Wynette 

G: You always said someday you'd go to live 

B: In Southern California 

G: And me I'd stay right here in Tennessee 

G: You always talked about the better days 

B: In Southern California 

G: But if you'll stay in Tennessee 

G: I promise there'll be better days with me 

T: It's not that I don't love you 

T: But I hear the call 

B: From Southern California 

T: There's something I can't find in Tennessee

Silver screens and limousines 

They wait for me in Southern California 

Though you've been so good to me 

The time has come you'll have to set me free 

G: Tomorrow when you leave 

G: You'll take my heart 

B: To Southern California 

G: But just remember I'll be here 

G: To keep your heart with me until you see 

(Tammy spoken) 

Well, it's been five years 

I guess I've cried a million tears 

Lookin' out the window of this little room 

Right over that flashin' neon sign that says, "Bar" 

It's almost midnight, 

An time to go downstairs and go to work 

I wonder how he's doin' in, Tennessee? 

Photos 

(George spoken) 

Well, here I sit by the window 

Of this big old lonely mansion 

Lookin' out over the Smokies 

And on in everything I can see 

Oh, I guess by now she's found 

What she was lookin' for 

And as I look at this old faded photograph 

Of the girl that I still love 

I wonder if she ever, thinks of me 

B: But the weather's good 

B: In Southern California...
