Driven through the canyons
I was dazzled by the mountains
And we didn't go very far
Close enough to heaven
If you climb up on a mansion
You too, can swing like a star
I tried to get inside
I bought a ticket with my pride
And I was gone right out of my head
I went out for a ride to go
Across a great divide
And I ended up at home instead
California, yeah
I thought I should see
(Now) now I'm back home, yeah
With 12 little pieces of me
I was just a passenger
A rider on the tremors
That were shaking all our beds at night
A visitor, a stranger
Thought I might pass for a regular
If I just kept out of the lights
Tore my heart out from my chest
Mixed it up in my mind
With the best freshest pieces of my soul
Chose the ones I loved the most
Drove 'em all down to the coast
Threw 'em in a big black hole
California, yeah
I thought I should see
(Now) now I'm back home, yeah
Got 12 little pieces of me
California, yeah
I dreamed I would find
Some kinda, sorta pick me up
I got 12 little pieces of my mind
California, yeah
I thought I should see
(Now) now I'm back home, yeah
Got 12 little pieces of me, yeah
California, yeah
I dreamed I would find
Some kinda, sorta pick me up
I got 12 little pieces of my mind
12 little pieces of my mind
12 little pieces of my mind
12 little pieces of my mind, oh-oh
