He always found it hard to take her
She wouldn't listen to advice
And though he never tried to make her
She often thought it would be nice
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
It's been a long time comin'
But she's feeling like a woman tonight
And she left a little letter
Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
Goodbye, goodbye
She tried for years to be a good wife
It never quite got off the ground
And all those stories of the good life
Convinced her not to hang around
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
And she doesn't know what's coming
But she sure knows what she's leaving behind
And she left a little letter
Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
Goodbye, goodbye
And though she finds it hard to leave him
She knows it would be worse to stay
He wouldn't understand the reasons
That make a woman run away
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
With some money in her pocket,
She's a rockin' on the 4th of July
And she left a little letter
Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
Goodbye, goodbye.
One of my favorite songs for sure. So empowering. It really speaks for itself!
California Fun Fact!
Our State Bird is the beautiful California Valley Quail!
Quails have always been my favorite bird. I love how they are so family-oriented. And charming! Well, I have to say that I love red cardinals. Indeed, red cardinals and fireflies are the only redeeming qualities of the east coast. Just kidding!
I have to toss in here a...
Utah Fun Fact!
Utah's State Bird is the California Seagull, who saved the crops one year by eating the locusts! Yum!
