Each Friday night I've gotta moan Cause it's not right To be alone And I'm alone And so I sleep Wake up at dawn And leave before The moon is gone I know it's wrong Wr-o-o-ong I've got to find some way out of here Jump on a plane and I disappear Maybe east of Ohio Maybe that's where I ought to go Cause living here I've got so down I guess that's why I've got to leave town To find some place I haven't found Cause I know that you'll be there waiting Back, back, honey Take me back, baby I want to stay in L.A Back, back, honey Take me back, sugar I want to stay When I get home The house is dark The only sound Is Joey's bark Been searching for another place a while Seen every town up in Northern Cal Searching further every country mile I saw New York and I like it's style But still I've gotta say I love L.A I guess that's why I feel I've gotta stay The hot streets and the summer nights So lonely Back, back, honey Take me back, baby I want to stay in L.A Back, back, honey Take me back, sugar I want to stay I know it's sad but I love L.A It's even sadder that I'm here to stay I might vacation on an isle away But this is where I'll spend my dying day So now it's time for me get me a wife And live in town with her for all of my life I'll understand when my hair turns grey Why I I live In L.A
