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 it in and picked it up When all you can do is just watch me go
From the Eastern Seaboard, landlocked Midwest The Keys, the Alps, the Black Hills and Budapest With my heart in a sling, tail between my legs a'swinging I'm sorry for leaving
But when the palm trees bow their heads No matter how wrong I've been L.A., 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 mama and her brother and their mama, too
Because 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 L.A., you always let me back in
And when the palm trees bow their heads No matter how cruel I've been L.A., you always let me back in, in Oh, back in, in Oh, back in, in
