A pretty girl sitting next to me
With beach blond hair in the passenger seat
Rocking CDaisy Dukes Gwith a bathing suit CunderneathG  
[Pre-Chorus]
AmShe's west coast head to toe
But Dthere ain't a Reba song that she don't knowG  
[Chorus]
GThere's country in CaliforEmnia
GWe drink whiskey, Cjust like they do Din Tennessee
We have Gbackroads, past where the grasEms grAmows

Yeah, there's Amcountry, in my DCalifoGrnia dream.D  
[Verse 2]
GI remember way back before it was cool
Singing Tim McGraw on my Cway to Gschool
