From the recording The Black Rose
Lyrics
Riding fast the windows down and we’re feeling good
We got the baby in the back just like I told you that we would
Court said you were unfit but we ain’t hearing that
Drove across America 'cause with her mother's where she should be at
This is how it should always be, you and me and the baby
The father was just a mistake that you made when you were seventeen
California cool
I love you
California cool
Say you love me, too
When we get back to Ohio I’m gonna get a job
I’m a family man now, you know I know how to work hard
My daddy said that our plans are going to land us both in jail
Well, he don’t understand your pain, no and I guess he never will
But he’ll see when you’re a vision in white with a gansta' grin
And I’ll be looking real cool and proud, and happier than I’ve ever been
And the bells the bells will ring and we'll rule the world
And our sweet child will be our flower girl
California cool
I love you
California cool
Say you love me, too
Now I see you in the rearview mirror looking back into her eyes
She's more beautiful right now than a San Diego sunrise
We’re gonna get into a program
We’re going to get off of these drugs
We don’t need ‘em no more anyhow
Not with all this
All this love
California cool
I love you
California cool
Say you love me, too
California
California
