It don't feel like California - in this bar in Bakersfield No one wants to be an actress - no one's hustlin' for a deal Drinkin' beer straight from a bottle - hopin' broken hearts will heal It don't feel like California - in this bar in Bakersfield Had my dinner at the Wool Growers - with the men who work the sheep Too much nicotine and coffee - ain't no way I'm gonna sleep Parking lot's all full of junkers - no respectful thief would steal It don't feel like California - in this bar in Bakersfield. There's an honesty in places - where you still can see the stars Read the stories on the faces - of the drunks who fill the bars There's a truth that comes with whiskey - everytime a glass is filled It don't feel like California - in this bar in Bakersfield There's a lady in the corner - wearin' her heart out on her sleeve Waitin' for some man to tell her - any lie she can believe There's a cowboy at the jukebox - that'll see her wish fullfilled It don't feel like California - in this bar in Bakersfield all work done by Judy Roberts
