adios to california

Singer: john hiatt

smokey room and a thin blue light

her arms were pale as white

trying to outlast the night

howlin' at the moon

living in the canyon then

hangdown hanna and whiskey jim

dirty jeans and mudslide hymns

that all began with soon

so adios to california

nothing to do but turn around

always thought there's someone comin' for ya

only way you'd leave this town

pasadena in the rain

eatin' donuts and readin' twain

how much longer can my brain

set itself on fire?

you said that's it for me"
