Got on board a westbound 747
Didn't think before deciding what to do
Ooh, that talk of opportunities
TV breaks and movies ran true
Sure ran true
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've often heard that dammit talk before
Seems it never rains in Southern California
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours
Yes, it pours
Out of work, I'm out of my head
I don't sell respect, I'm out of breath
I'm underweight

Loved, I'm underfed
I wanna go home
Seems it never rains in Southern California
Seems I've often heard this kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn ya
It pours
Yes, it pours
Will you tell the folks back home
I nearly made it
I had offers but they know which one to take
Oh, please don't tell them how you found me
Don't tell them how you found me
Give me a break
Give me a break
See me

It never rains in Southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California
But girl, don't they warn you
It pours, yes it pours
It pours, yeah it pours
It pours, yeah it pours
It pours, yeah it pours
