Now just sitting here wondering why the going gets so mean
I'm just sitting here wondering mama why the going gets so mean
Now I'm going back to California
So I can do just as I please
Crossing that old desert mama, just like breaking the Hindenburg Line
Crossing that old desert, just like breaking the Hindenburg Line
Now If I get hitched to that freight train
You know that this will be the end of the line
Well yes I know, I know, yes I know, I know
I know, I know, mama, yes I know, I know
Now the train is at the station
And my mind is made up to go
When I reach old Los Angeles California, you oughta hear me jump and shout
When I reach old Los Angeles, you oughta hear me jump and shout
Now the people in Los Angeles
They didn't know what it's all about
