31 Days: Day Seven
7. California You're A Woman (The Family Song)
Well you know how when you're young
There's such a distance between you and your family
You just can't see things from the same point of view
Papa wants a lawyer and mama she wants an author
And all you want is for them to want you
Kind of a heartbreaking little semi-autobiographical song, with a bit of a happy ending. Just vocals and guitar on this one. Every folk singer has to sing about going to California, right? Right.
