These days I'm laying low in San Diego
And you know that's where the sun shines all the time
Every now and then I get a bad jones to go home
So I call some old friends of mine
And they ask me if I like the place I'm livin' in
I tell 'em California's pretty happenin'
But buddy outta everywhere I've been

I should've stopped in Wichita
That was where I had it all
There's a woman there with brown hair
Who never did on thing wrong
I wonder what she's doin' now
I wonder how her life turned out
Sure I got to see it all
But I should've stopped in Wichita

I come from a long, long line of dreamers, leavers
Coulda been the gypsy in my blood
Maybe I just saw one too many wheat fields, big deal
Maybe it got too close to love
That was when I thought I had it figured out
Wasn't really ready then to settle down
Wish I knew back then what I know now

I should've stopped in Wichita
That was where I had it all
There's a woman there with brown hair
Who never did on thing wrong
I wonder where we'd be by now
How it would've all turned out
Yeah I got to see it all
But I should've stopped in Wichita

I guess there's nothin' left to do now
But just get on with my life somehow
So I keep rollin'

I should've stopped in Wichita
Back where I still had it all
There's a woman there with brown hair
Who never did a damn thing wrong
I wonder where we'd be by now
Yeah I got to see it all
But I shoulda stopped in Wichita
I shoulda stopped in Wichita
