Got on board a westbound seven forty seven
Didn t think before deciding what to do
Ooh, the talk of opportunities, TV breaks and movies
Rang true, sure rang true
Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I ve often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California, but girl don t they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
Out of work, I m out of my head
Out of self respect, I m out of bread
I m underclothed I m underfed, I wanna go home
It never rains in California, but girl don t they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
Well you tell the folks back home I nearly made it
Had offers but don t know which one to take
Please don t tell em how you found me
Don t tell em how you found me
Gimme a break, give me a break
Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I ve often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California, but girl don t they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
