- Bakersfield LyricsTake me down that line, gonna tow that heavy load
I can't seem to make it, make it on my own
Turn the lights down low now, turn down our bed
I can't seem to get you out of my head
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're so close yet so far, far away
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're a million miles away, yeah
I feel the heat coming down now, sweat runs down my face
I can hardly make it go, take it through this day
Was it something that I said or something I didn't do
Eighteen more hours, girl, 'til I'm home to you
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're so close yet so far, far away
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're a million miles away, yeah
So I walk out that lonely truck stop
With my head hanging down
Wondering how in the hell I got myself into this mess
And more importantly how I was going to get myself out of it
So I wrote a song for you, baby girl
And I hope when I return home
The locks ain't changed on the doors
And there's still a spot for me
On that big ol' California king size bed
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're so close yet so far, far away
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're a million miles away, yeah
Won't you come see me in Bakersfield?
Ooh, I'm not a million miles away, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
I can't seem to make it, make it on my own
Turn the lights down low now, turn down our bed
I can't seem to get you out of my head
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're so close yet so far, far away
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're a million miles away, yeah
I feel the heat coming down now, sweat runs down my face
I can hardly make it go, take it through this day
Was it something that I said or something I didn't do
Eighteen more hours, girl, 'til I'm home to you
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're so close yet so far, far away
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're a million miles away, yeah
With my head hanging down
Wondering how in the hell I got myself into this mess
And more importantly how I was going to get myself out of it
So I wrote a song for you, baby girl
And I hope when I return home
The locks ain't changed on the doors
And there's still a spot for me
On that big ol' California king size bed
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're so close yet so far, far away
Stranded here in Bakersfield
You're a million miles away, yeah
Won't you come see me in Bakersfield?
Ooh, I'm not a million miles away, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Facts about Bakersfield

✔️
When we try to interpret the meaning, Social Distortion's 'Bakersfield' illustrates the emotional mess of yearning and parting by using the geographical distance between Bakersfield and the narrator's present place as a comparison for the emotive void experienced in the relationship. The lyrics of Bakersfield are primarily concerned with love, loneliness, meditation, worry and nostalgia. The song, however, simultaneously implies the necessity of longing and separation, fight and patience and ultimately, hope and coming together. The text consists of a few adult topics and soft language, though there is nothing that could raise the rating due to the absence of explicit content.
