Chorus

The sun goes down, the fire pits leap
It's another summer night here in the OC
Well, I'm not no baller,
though I do have an Impala
And I might say "hey," but I'd never say "holla"
The girl with the gloss
And a G-string just like floss
Well, she's waving her caboose at you
I bet you drool
She calls you out, mmmhmm

I know you heard that bass
Bumpin' in my trunk (uh huh)
Bum-bumpin' in my trunk (uh-huh)
Bum-bumpin' in my trunk (bump that trunk)
I know you heard that bass
Bumpin' in my trunk (uh-huh)
Bum-bumpin' in my trunk (uh-huh)
Bum-bumpin' in my trunk (let's go)

Chorus:
Boom, boom, boom
Turn up the beat, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel it
(California)
Don't you wish that you could come?
With the radio on
Blazing all summer long
Boom, boom, boom
You're all up freaking
Oh, oh, oh
My friends are drinking
(California)
Don't you wish that you could come?
’Cause we're never going home
Till the summer's all gone

G         D
California
Em        C
California
G
I know you heard that
     D
bass bumping in my trunk
    Em
Bum-bumping in my trunk
     C
Bum-bumping in my
trunk (hey ho let's go)

Chorus:
Boom, boom, boom
Turn up the beat yeah
Oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel it
(California)
Don't you wish that you could come?
With the radio on
Blazing all summer long

Boom, boom, boom
You're all up freaking
Oh, oh, oh
My friends are drinking
(California)
Don't you wish that you could come?
’Cause we're never going home
Till the summer's all gone

Don't you wish that you could come?
’Cause we're never going home
Till the summer's all gone
