Sleep in your jeans in the back of a camper

Slip 'em off slow while the stars do shine

Drive through the night just to try and understand her

Why she'd ever wanna call that cowboy mine

California, baby, have you ever seen the darkness?

Have you heard the sound of silence when it's just right?

California, baby, I've been in this room for so long

And I don't have words to say goodnight

California, baby, have you ever seen the darkness?

Have you heard the sound of silence when it's just right?

California, baby, I've been in this room for so long

And I don't have the nerve to say goodnight

So sleep in your jeans in the back of a camper

Slip 'em off slow while the stars do shine

We'll drive through the night just to try and understand her

Why she'd ever wanna call that cowboy mine
