Traveling down this highway,

Highway 101
 C
Wishing that my lonesome trip was 
B
Over and done

Counting off those miles,

Listening to that whine

Got a California woman on my mind

Well, I sang my songs in Montery

For fortune and fame
 
    Em
But no one cared about me there

So, now I'm coming home
