Take Me Back

Everyone tells me

I was dealt a losing hand

The way that i look

And the way that i act

It's not hard to understand

Sure i got troubles

Maybe you got'em too

I'd like to explain what has happened to me

So it doesn't 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 don't 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 we'll 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

Won't you let me come back home



Goin' off to college

Passed every test

They said, "let's send this boy to palo alto

He could be one of the best"

Four years at stanford

Worked very hard

A lot of good it did me, little tramp,

Your're ruining my life



Take me back

Baby, please take me back

I don't 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 we'll start all over again

Just give me a chance

And we'll start all over
