Jill Sobule - Tel Aviv lyrics

I'm climbing the stairway That leads from the kitchen In a bar in Tel Aviv He asks for my age He thinks I'm a virgin That's why he asked for me [Chorus] Somebody's missing me Somebody's missing me Somebody come get me I dream of my country I think of my mother I send her what I can She thinks I'm a waitress She's proud I'm a waitress In the promised land They promised me work And they promised me TV They promised I'd never get bored I'm back on the stairway I'm higher than ever They promised that I could get more [Chorus: x2] There's a boat down on the shore Wish I could steal away I'm back on the farm With my friend Sofia She's running and laughing out loud We're down by the river In the middle of summer I wish he'd get off of me now [Chorus]
