Melissa Etheridge - Miss California lyrics
[Melissa Etheridge - Miss California lyrics]
Yeah hey
Ooh, Miss California what did I do wrong?
It seems I've loved you
For just a little too long
Ooh, you've gone and left me
For some preacher's way
Now you act like you never knew me
And you can't hear a word I say
Miss California did I get in your way?
Did the neighbors warn you
What would happen someday?
That a love like mine was never good anyway
They said: "Think about your reputation
Before you get carried away"
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Don't you know what's good for you
Can be good for me, too?
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Miss California was I a little too proud?
I'm standing in the streets now
And I'm screaming out loud
You try to shove me in your closet
With your skulls and your bones
Oh, I can be who I am, you see
If I want to do it all alone
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Don't you know what's good for you
Can be good for me, too?
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Your sweet seduction led me far from home
Your self-destruction
Gives me sticks and stones
Your propositions make me feel so cold
When the hand that's trying to hold me down
Is the one that I'm trying to hold
I know the hand that's trying to hold me down
Is the one that I'm trying to hold us
The hand that's trying to force me back
Is the one that won't let me go
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah yeah, yeah, hey oh, oh, oh, oh yeah
Don't you know what's good for me?
Ooh, Miss California what did I do wrong?
It seems I've loved you
For just a little too long
Ooh, you've gone and left me
For some preacher's way
Now you act like you never knew me
And you can't hear a word I say
Miss California did I get in your way?
Did the neighbors warn you
What would happen someday?
That a love like mine was never good anyway
They said: "Think about your reputation
Before you get carried away"
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Don't you know what's good for you
Can be good for me, too?
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Miss California was I a little too proud?
I'm standing in the streets now
And I'm screaming out loud
You try to shove me in your closet
With your skulls and your bones
Oh, I can be who I am, you see
If I want to do it all alone
Hey yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Don't you know what's good for you
Can be good for me, too?
Don't you know what's good for me
Can be good for you?
Your sweet seduction led me far from home
Your self-destruction
Gives me sticks and stones
Your propositions make me feel so cold
When the hand that's trying to hold me down
Is the one that I'm trying to hold
I know the hand that's trying to hold me down
Is the one that I'm trying to hold us
The hand that's trying to force me back
Is the one that won't let me go
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Miss California yeah, yeah, yeah
Ah yeah, yeah, hey oh, oh, oh, oh yeah
Don't you know what's good for me?
