E

Folks like me, they’re always moving

B7 E

It seems to be the only way to stay

E

There ain’t nothin too strange or too confusing

B7 E

It’s better to change a little everyday

E

Some folks travel, some folks settle

B7 E

Some folks own and some folks rent

E

Some folks marry, some just stay single

B7 E

Everybody wonders where the money went

Chorus:

E

I don’t wanna to live like a big shot rich man

B7 E

I don’t wanna to live like a branded slave

E

I just want to give some land to my children

B7 E

So they won’t have to buy my grave

I want to go back to California

I want to be in that state once more

When the floods come in and the quakes are over

I hope I'm not sittin’ on the ocean floor

Gonna be with my friends back in Oklahoma

Gonna settle down on a piece of ground

I’ll have 100 wives and a mess of puppies

I could live my life, like a natural hound

Chorus

Gonna roll me a reefer, seven foot long

Smoke that reefer, I got turned on

I hocked a tape deck made in Hong Kong

I bought some more reefer, now my money’s gone

Chorus
