Dyin' Til I Make It

Yeah you know me I'm one pay check from homeless Maybe you might be that way yourself I could always be waiting for my hand out But I'm a man and I can do it for myself And I'm dyin' til I make it to California Living on the edge of tomorrow But I'm fallin' away Trying to squeeze a diamond from an almond Holdin' on to make it one more day I don't always know how I'm gonna make it for my family At night I lay my head and say my prayers And I must be asking God with some conviction Cause somehow California's always there And I'm dyin' til I make it to California Living on the edge of tomorrow But I'm fallin' away Trying to squeeze a diamond from an almond Holdin' on to make it one more day Oh yeah I break my back all year Ah but the pay off Is always in California And I'm dyin' til I make it to California Living on the edge of tomorrow But I'm fallin' away Trying to squeeze a diamond from an almond Holdin' on to make it one more day Holdin' on to make it one more day Holdin' on to make it one more day
