Sacramento (/ˌsækrəˈmɛntoʊ/; Spanish: [sakɾaˈmento]) is the capital city of the U.S. state of California and the seat of government of Sacramento County. It is at the confluence of the Sacramento River and the American River in the northern portion of California's expansive Central Valley. Its estimated 2014 population of 485,199 made it the sixth-largest city in California. Sacramento is the cultural and economic core of the Sacramento metropolitan area, which includes seven counties with a 2010 population of 2,414,783. Its metropolitan area is the fourth largest in California after the Greater Los Angeles area, the San Francisco Bay Area, and the San Diego metropolitan area, and is the 27th largest in the United States. In 2002, the Civil Rights Project at Harvard University conducted for TIME magazine named Sacramento "America's Most Diverse City".
Sacramento became a city through the efforts of the Swiss immigrant John Sutter, Sr., his son John Sutter, Jr., and James W. Marshall. Sacramento grew quickly thanks to the protection of Sutter's Fort, which was established by Sutter in 1839. During the California Gold Rush, Sacramento was a major distribution point, a commercial and agricultural center, and a terminus for wagon trains, stagecoaches, riverboats, the telegraph, the Pony Express, and the First Transcontinental Railroad.
I can't help but feeling that love
Is always dealing me a losing hand
California's sleeping and you've got me weeping
I am just a man, I'm just a man, I'm just a man
Standing at the airport
She is just a cohort coffee in her hand
Sacramento's breathing
And I can't help believing you don't understand
Don't understand, I'm just a man
Don't understand, I'm just a man
California's sleeping and you've
Got me weeping and I am just a man
I can't help but feeling that love
Is always dealing me a losing hand
My losing hand, I'm just a man
Standing at the airport
She is just a cohort coffee in her hand
Sacramento's breathing and I can't help believing
Conscious of my losing hand, my losing hand
My losing hand, don't understand
My losing hand, don't understand
California's sleeping and you've
Got me weeping and I am just a man
I can't help but feeling that love
Is always dealing me a losing hand
My losing hand, my losing hand
Don't understand, my losing hand
Don't understand, my losing hand
Don't understand, don't understand
