House In California Lyrics & Chords By Keb' Mo'

LyricsView Chords

We were sick and tired of Buffalo
Tired of freezin' and shovelin' snow
So we packed it up and moved out to the coast
To find us a house in California

Somethin' at the beach or Hollywood
Three or four bedrooms sound real good
Don't have to have a pool or a veranda
Just a simple little house in California

The banker said, "son, what do you do?"
I play guitar down at the rendevous
He said, "boy, you need to be a big time actor or a corporate lawyer
If you want to buy a house in California"

'Cause it don't snow and it don't rain and every day looks the same
But before you pack your things let me warn ya
It's the land of milk and honey but you better have good money
If you're lookin' for a house in California

Well I got three jobs, my wife's got two
The kid's flippin' burgers at the local drive-through
We're all doin' everything' we can
We're savin' for a house in California

Then one day things started shakin'
Sky went dark and the earth was quakin'
Then over night it became alarmin'
How the prices dropped on a house in California

Well it needs a roof and it needs a plumber
Yeah yeah, its' a real fixer-upper
Friends back east said somebody shoulda warned ya
But I finally got my house in California

And it don't snow and it don't rain, every day looks the same
And before you pack your things let me warn ya
It's the land of milk and honey but you better have good money
If you're lookin' for a house in California

If you're lookin' for a house in California
Well I finally got my house in California
Swimmin' pool... movie star...
