Mighty California Lyrics

[Hook]
Mighty California, hady-yadi-yadi-yey
Look at all these pretty people doing things I shouldn’t say
Sangria, Sangria, I’m drinking this for you, though
Can you see us? I see us
All these moments in your pool

I’m so deep, deep and you know it
Don’t pretend you do, just show it
Are we done or what? We faded
Made it all the way to these places
(x2)

[Verse 1]
I was seventeen in ’07, nineteen in ’09
Had some fun with Tami and Tia, man, that Spanish girl is so fine
Easy days You won’t get used to, used to say that shit to get by
That was fly, fly, to get driven, I don’t walk around to get high
Lots of money with my money, doesn’t know how to invest
Talking shit, staying humble, if you die tonight, you’re impressing
Girl, don’t brag about it, talk about it, let them know who you dated
If they ask about me, play this shit like “look, my Ex is famous”


[Bridge]
Yeah, Out here in California, pretty girls and marijuana
I've been through muddy waters, good times and slutty daughters

Good times and slutty daughters
It’s only going, you forget about
Made it big, I think you read about
It’s only me, don’t you forget about it
So never let ‘em forget about it

Out here in California, pretty girls and marijuana
I've been through muddy waters, good times and slutty daughters

[Hook]
Oh, Mighty California, hady-yadi-yadi-yey
Look at all these pretty people doing things I shouldn’t say
Sangria, Sangria, I’m drinking this for you, though
Can you see us? I see us
All these moments in your pool
I’m so deep, deep and you know it
Don’t pretend you do, just show it
Are we done or what, we faded
Made it all the way to these places

It’s only going, you forget about
Made it big, I think you read about
It’s only me, don’t you forget about it
So never let ‘em forget about it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
