Going Back West (7" Version)

[00:07.56] I was born and raised in the ghetto
[00:12.16] Talk with me and you'll know
[00:14.83] I wasn't satisfied, with living on the side
[00:22.94] I started looking around, for a possibility
[00:31.14] Listen to my story, of what became of me
[00:39.22] I met a businessman
[00:43.77] Who said he had some friends back east
[00:47.78] So why don't you come along
[00:51.30] Well we can help you at least
[00:54.94] We'll make you into a big star
[00:59.40] By playing your guitar
[01:03.07] But the joke was on me
[01:06.86] They left me flat to see
[01:11.27] Going back west
[01:14.87] Yes I know I'll make out alright
[01:20.23] Going back west
[01:22.10] Where my music's playing all night
[01:28.43] Going back west (going back west)
[01:32.00] I think I'll do alright
[01:36.52] Going back west
[01:38.33] Yes I know I'll make out alright
[01:44.74] Going back west
[01:46.54] Where my music's playing all night
[01:52.81] Going back west (going back west)
[01:56.46] I think I'll do alright
[02:04.28] Struggling for recognition, identity and respect
[02:11.47] I got a lot of promises
[02:15.19] They told me not to fret
[02:20.57] So we will stand by you
[02:24.15] If the going gets rough
[02:27.69] But when I started thinking
[02:32.24] They didn't even bluff
[02:35.82] 'bout a year has come and gone
[02:40.43] And left me standing here
[02:44.08] Thinking how it could have been
[02:48.57] For still I ain't nowhere
[02:52.14] They surely took me for a ride
[02:55.76] Trampled on my pride
[03:00.25] But I hold my head up high
[03:04.84] Got no more tears to cry
[03:09.30] Going back west
[03:11.16] Yes I know I'll make out alright
[03:16.51] Going back west
[03:19.67] Where my music's playing all night
[03:25.03] Going back west (going back west)
[03:28.68] I think I'll do alright
[03:33.11] Going back west
[03:35.84] Yes I know I'll make out alright
[03:41.32] Going back west
[03:43.11] Where my music's playing all night
[03:46.76] Going back west (going back west)
[03:50.36] I think I'll do alright
[03:57.85] Going back west
[03:59.61] Yes I know I'll make out alright
[04:05.17] Going back west
[04:08.72] Where my music's playing all night
[04:11.39]
