Verse 1 Met ya out on the west coast Fell in love in Frisco and brought you home You said you loved this small town We tried to put some roots down of our own
But the city lights burned so bright In your memory Guess they were always calling you Away from me
Chorus: Should be good to go I topped it off, I checked the oil There's a map on the dash, But I guess you know your way
And I have to laugh I guess As you point your Eldorado west You changed my life You changed your name But you never changed your California plates
Verse 2: Bet you missed the beaches Warm ocean breezes rollin' in But I'll miss the cool nights Nothin' but the firelight on your skin
Girl dry your eyes I know you tried To make it work But in your heart your Still a California girl
Chorus: Should be good to go I topped it off, I checked the oil There's a map on the dash, But I guess you know your way
And I have to laugh I guess As you point your Eldorado west You changed my life You changed your name But you never changed your California plates
Bridge
And I have to laugh I guess As you point your Eldorado west You changed my life You changed your name But you never changed your California plates No you never changed your California plates
