lyrics

With each trip down, I seem to long for the city life, the busy sights
And if I should move to the Bronx
You can come watch Yankee games with me
In the cheapest seats
And if I should move to the deserts
Of Arizona, New Mexico
Past the Navajo cliffs we’ll stroll
Stay in roadside motels, neon glimmering in the darkness

If I leave here
I’ll never come round again
But I’ll just be awhile my friend

Forever staying on the East Coast
Born and raised here
And if I should move to the segregated ruins of Baltimore
Or Italian sections of revolutionary Boston
Sun kissed, tropical, Florida

If I leave here
I’ll never come round again
But I’ll just be awhile my friend

I don’t wanna leave here now
But I know I gotta leave here somehow
Gotta find someplace where nobody knows my
Name, or who I am
And after years I’ll return again
Buy a large old house on Grand

Everywhere I go nothing is like home
But you have to leave here they say
But I’ll never leave here, no way
