You are the best You really are the best Everybody’s telling me I should just let it be Need to let go what's in my heart Been a year since I've been free But this city’s k**ing me Need to leave and make a brand new start I tried, lord I tried To feel something but I can't I tried, lord I tried To feel at home but I can't No I can't Bakersfield, I feel ya You’ve got a lot of weight on your bones One thing I must confess Is you really are the best At making me feel alone A river runs through this town Pulling everybody down But then it leaves without a trace Now I feel like I am stuck With a busted beat up truck And I got tattoos on my face I tried, lord I tried To feel something but I can't I tried, lord I tried To feel at home at home but I can't No I can't Bakersfield I feel ya You’ve got a lot of weight on your bones One thing I must confess Is you really are the best At making me feel at home Home is where I found her Standing there in the same place It's where I left her last September Annie girl I sure miss your face
