Albert Hammond - It never rains in Southern California 1973

Albert Hammond - It never rains in Southern California 1973

Got on board a west bound 747
Didn't think before deciding 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 often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girls don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Out of work, I'm out of my head
Out of selfrespect, I'm out of bread
I'm underloved, I'm underfed,
I wanna go home
It never rains in California
But girl don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours

(Instrumental)

Will you tell the folks back home,
I nearly made it
Had offers but don't know which one to take,
Please don't tell them
how you found me,
don't tell them how you found me,
give me a break, man give me a break.

Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girls don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours

Seems it never

Wow, great song...one from my long lost and misspent youth...When you hear a tune like this for the first time at age six (as I did) it burns it's way into the hardwire of your brain and it will always be there. When you hear it later it will evoke the same feelings you had way back when, although somewhat hollowed by distance and nostalgia...Man I miss being a kid in the seventies.....
