This city must belong to someone, |
|
But it don't belong to me. |
|
From the window I got here, |
|
I count the traffic through my tears, |
|
Wanting to write my ticket, write my ticket home. |
|
I got to get back in the arms of a man who loves me, |
|
I got to get back to the people who have always been proud of me. |
|
Take me back, I was wrong. |
|
Write my ticket home. |
|
Place called Suzy's, I'm a waitress. |
|
Sue says, "Girl, you'll get used to all this." |
|
There is no way she could see |
|
How much that cold rain gets to me, |
|
How much I traded for a picture in my mind. |
|
I got to get back in the arms of a man who loves me. |
|
I got to get back to the people who have always been proud of me. |
|
Take me back, I was wrong. |
|
Write my ticket home. |
|
I can hear 'em sitting 'round joking. |
|
"She talks so big though she come back broken." |
|
Well I had to try. |
|
I ain't so proud. |
|
I wish I were talking 'bout nothing with them right now. |
|
I got to get back in the arms of a man who loves me. |
|
I got to get back to the people who have always been proud of me. |
|
Take me back, I was wrong. |
|
Write my ticket, |
|
Write my ticket, |
|
Write my ticket home. |
