Take Me Back
Everyone tells me
I was dealt a losing hand
The way that I look
And the way that I act
Its not hard to understand
Sure I got troubles
Maybe you gotem too
Id like to explain what has happened to me
So it doesnt happen to you
I was born in los angeles
Many, many, many years ago
We lived out in north hollywood then
In a steamy little bungalow
My mother, my father
My baby brother and me
Playin cowboys all day
Out there in the valley
What a perfect family
Hey, hey
Get em up, get em up
Come a ti yi
Hey
Went off to high school
When I was thirteen
I was kind of advanced
If you know what I mean
Got into some trouble
Drinkin heavy with my friends in the hills
My daddy had to come down to the station to get me
He said, where is my angry young man?
Take me back
Baby, please take me back
I dont wanna live here by this dirty old airport
In this greasy little shack
Take me back
Baby, please take me back
Just give me a chance and well start all over again
Now that young girl
Was just a summertime thing
She went back to school
When the school bell ring
Now I do my laundry by myself
Every night I eat alone
Baby please, please, please
Wont you let me come back home
Goin off to college
Passed every test
They said, lets send this boy to palo alto
He could be one of the best
Four years at stanford
