Lyrics
I flew away to California
To get away from what was wrong
I thought I'd change the scene
Change my luck, and I'd get straight before too long
And I'd be happy
I met a hundred different people
Still, I was lonely and unhappy as can be
Cause the very first person I met in California
Was nobody else but me
I found a place in Santa Barbara
I couldn't wait to see the town
And so I bought a car
I told myself, if I had wheels to get around
Then I'd be happy
I went to all the famous beaches
Still, I was lonely and unhappy as can be
Cause the very first person I met in California
Was nobody else but me
I'm going back to Tuscaloosa
Where I grew up and ran away
I'll start my life again
I realized it's not the town in which you stay
That makes you happy
The only place to find contentment
Is deep inside you way down deep
And as for me
Well, the very first person I'll meet in Tuscaloosa
Is somebody who will be
The very first person I met in California
Just nobody else but me
Nobody but me
Nobody but me
