Lyrics
I’m going to California to see the other side
the trees that I am walking through grow branches in the night.
The mountains try to tell me exactly what is on their mind.
I stole $1 million , I’ve told a 1000 tales
Walked through every canyon, spent a night in every jail.
Buried it in Barstow, no one will find it there.
Is anybody listening, (does anybody care) as if I really cared maybe out in Colorado no one will find me there
Flew planes up in Seattle, drove taxis in the rain. Married once in Memphis, under a different name.
Drifting like a satellite, among the beauty and the pain
Now I’m going to Mississippi with a brand new fishing pole
I’m going to Mississippi with a suitcase full of gold.
Moving in the mirror like a shadow of a man that no one knows
