Budweiser clock says its almost twelve
I tipped the bartender, he rang that old bell
San bernardino nights are great, but they sure dont feel like home
Right now in tulsa theyve turned up the lights
The band has stopped playin, theyve called it a night
Shes makin her way to the front door, I know
She wont be leavin alone
If its midnight in california, must be closin time in oklahoma
I know that shes already danced another night away
And these west coast nights sure seem colder
Knowin somebody elses arms will hold her
Midnight in california means its closin time at home
I thought this distance between us might help me forget
But Ive been here two weeks and it aint happened yet
A change of scenery hasnt done a thing to change her mind
Oh, these west coast nights sure seem colder
Knowin somebody elses arms will hold her
Midnight in california means its closin time at home
Yeah, midnight in california means its closin time at home
