"It Never Rains in Southern California" by Albert Hammond

Got on board a westbound 747
Didn't think before deciding what to do
Ooh, that talk of opportunities
TV breaks and movies
Rang true, sure rang true

(CHORUS)
Seems it never rains
In southern California
Seems I've often heard
That kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours, man, it pours

Out of work, I'm out of my head
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread
I'm underloved, I'm underfed
I wanna go home

It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours, man, it pours

Will you tell the folks
Back home I nearly made it
Had offers but don't
Know which one to take

Please don't tell em how you found me
Don't tell em how you found me
Gimme a break, give me a break

(CHORUS)
