Carole King — Back to California

[Verse 1] I've been feelin' down in Atlanta Immobile in Alabam' I'd rather be in traction Than to be here where I am Oh, you Georgia red clay And green Virginia pines I've got to make it home somehow Before I lose my mind [Chorus] So won't you carry me back to California? I've been on the road too long Take me to the West Coast, daddy And let me be where I belong (Whoo) [Verse 2] Hey now, Philly, you street city Been down by the railroad track I know you can be a sweet city But I won't soon be back Haystack towns and smokestack cities Are nothin' I wanna see My own house on a high ground Is the only place I wanna be [Chorus] So won't you carry me back to California? I've been on the road too long Take me to the West Coast, daddy And let me be, let me be where I belong (Oh) (Ooh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
