Got on board a westbound 747
Didn't think before decidin'
what to do
All that 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 under loved
I'm under fed
I wanna go home
It never rains in California
But girl don't they warn ya
It pours
Man it pours
Will you tell the folks
back home
I nearly made it
Tell 'em I had offers
But didn't know
which ones to take
But please don't tell them
how you found me
Don't tell them
Give me 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
