I'm comin' home I said I'm comin' home I'm comin' home I said I'm comin' home I just can't wait to get back home I'm comin' home (Back to L.A.) I said I'm comin' home I'm comin' home (Ba-back to L.A.) I said I'm comin' home I'm comin' home (Back to L.A.) I said I'm comin' home (Ba-back to L.A.) Damn, it's good to be back home In city streets where I used to roam The neighborhood has changed But somethin' always stays the same Liquor stores on every other block I see my homies so I make a stop And though I'm tempted I won't fall back in the game My next stop is filled with love Because it's moms and pops I'm thinkin' of As I get closer, I smell the Bar-B-Q And as I step into the yard My grandma shouts "I praise the Lord" And so do the honeys, uh This'll be so cool To be back home Where I belong I'm back in L.A Where I used to stay Where I long to be This is home for me Back in L.A As the party starts to coolin' out You know me, and here's what I'm thinkin' 'bout Gettin' with a cutie 'Cause I don't have much time (My flight leaves at nine) Should I go with the one that I know well? Or swing a new one back to my hotel? It really doesn't matter 'Cause all of them are so fine
Now, um, uh I think I know what kind of woman you are So what would you do for a Klondike bar? Would you swing from a chandelier? Or maybe whisper "oh Monty" with your tongue in my ear I tell ya girl, if you're the one that I choose I'm knockin' boots and pumps And any other kind of shoes And you could keep my drawers as memoirs Of my last day, when Monty Swing was back in L.A Where I belong This is home for me I'm back in L.A., yeah Where I long to be Back in L.A Oh oh, oh oh As a tear comes to my eye It's so hard to say goodbye I would like to stay, but I got other plans So I tip my cap with ease I treasure all those precious memories 'Cause I got to get back out to all of my fans Now it's off to Atlanta GA And I might stop in D.C. on the way Chillin' on the east coast But just a little while But no matter where I go I will always let you know That I'm singing this South Central L.A. style And I'm back home Where I belong I'm back in L.A Where I used to stay Where I long to be This is home for me Back in L.A Oh oh, oh oh I'm chillin' on Crenshaw On 54th Street On 4th Avenue This might be new to you But I'm goin' on home This is where I belong I'm back in L.A Oh oh, oh oh
