California Snow - Dave Alvin
I'm just trying make a living
I'm an old man at 39
My two kids and my ex wife
Moved up to river side
I'm workin' down on the border
Drivin' back roads every night
Mountains east of El Cajon
North of the Tecate line
Where the California summer sun
Burn right through your soul
In the winter you can freeze to death
In the California snow
I catch the ones I'm able to
And watch the others slip away
I know some by their faces
And I even know some by name
I guess they think that we're all
Movie stars and millionaires
I guess that they still believe
Dreams come true up here
But I breath weather's warmer
Down in Mexico
And no one ever tells them 'bout the California snow
Last winter I found a man and wife
Just about daybreak
Layin' in a frozen ditch
South of the interstate
I wrapped 'em both in blankets
But she'd already died
The next day we sent him back alone
Across the borderline
I don't know where they came from
Or where they planned to go
But we carried her all night long
Through the California snow
Sometimes when I'm alone out here
I get to thinkin' about my life
Maybe I should go to River side
And try to fix things with my wife
Or maybe just get in my truck
And drive as far as I can go
Away from all the ghosts that haunt
The California snow
Where the California summer sun
Can burn right to your whole soul
And in the winter you can freeze to death
In the California snow
And the winter you can freeze to death
In the California snow
