Cali-Hustle
words and music by Luke Sundquist

I see you on my big screen - hope your dreams come true
I am not an actor, but every day I'm actin' like I stopped lovin' you.
I left the scene without a witness. It's best not to return.
But I must destroy the evidence or it will always
Burn in me
That you could not see
That I was givin it up, givin it up
While you were livin' it up livin' it up

CH
In a California hustle
It's easy to confuse
The California dreamin
With nothing left to lose
The California Hustle
We smile when we bruise
The biggest dreams you get
Are the easiest to lose

Don't deny the drama, I admit I played the part
Of the man who reached out to your hand, but did not have the heart
To say "babe you're fucking beautiful, and I don't care where you've been.
Is it hard or is it easy when the mess you make ends right where you
begin to smile."
It's been awhile
Since I was givin it up givin it up
So we're livin it up livin it up
CH
In a California Hustle
It's easy to confuse
The California Dreamin
With nothing left to lose
The California Hustle
We smile when we bruise
Cause the biggest dreams we get
Are the easiest to lose

I can take one on the chin
But I get weak where you begin
A bettor's heart is not a sin
That's why we're already all up


In a California hustle
You can join in too
But you'll need a little dreamin
To soften up the truth

In a California Hustle
Its easy to confuse
But My California dream
Is comin home to you
I'm comin home, I'm comin home
