Let Me Back In

Let it be printed, let it be known

I’m leaving you, I’m going home

And all you can do is just watch me go

I’ve put you down, talked you up

Defended your honor

and then packed in and picked it up

When all you can do is just watch me go

From the Eastern seaboard,

The land-locks Mid-west

The keys, the Alps, the Blackhills and Budapest

With my heart in a sling tail,

Between my legs are swinging

I’m sorry for leaving

But when The palm trees bow their heads

No matter how wrong I’ve been

LA, you always let me back in

And you can bury me

When my body breaks

In the earth that created me in the Golden state

By my momma and her brother, and her momma too

Cause I had a dream I was carried on backs of a thousand green birds

And they carried me to a place without words

And there was nothing, but there was everything

And it sounded like this

But when The palm trees bow their heads

No matter how cruel I’ve been

LA, you always let me back in

And when the ṗalm trees bow their heads

No matter how cruel I’ve been

LA, you always let me back in, in

Oh back in, in, oh back in, in,
