There's a singery-songwritery/ bluesy-rocky, tuneful but not too gruff song called 'It Never Rains in Southern California' ....
Seems it never rains in southern California
Seems I've often heard that kind of talk before
It never rains in California, but girl don't they warn ya
It pours, man it pours
It's by Albert Hammond, who's big claim to fame these days is that his son, Albert Junior, is lead guittarist in The Strokes. INRISC was a sizeable hit, and probablypaid for the private schol where Junior met his baandmates. Hope this is the one oyu're looking for.
