southern california sand - homer joy lyrics
from the arkansas bottomland
to the land of blowing sand in california
i come to watch my young ones grow
and to see all the seeds i’d sow turn into flowers
the children here want higher class
and this sand here won’t grow grass
and now i sit here cryin’
my head down in my hands
watchin’ my flowers die
askin’ the good lord why
watchin’ my dreams die
in the southern california sand
california sun
lord it shines down on everyone but me
maybe arkansas wasn’t so bad
when i think about the times i had here in california
least i had a family, that used to have a little faith in me
but now it doesn’t
one by one, thеy’ve gone away
my wife lеft yesterday
she said she’s young
and she’s got better plans
but now, when a man is poor
and a dream is all he can afford
watches that dream die
in the southern california sand
california sun
lord it shines down on everyone but me
[humming]
