I was born and raised in the Ghetto

Talk with me and you'll know

I wasn't satisfied with living on the side

I started looking around for a possibility

But listen to my story of what became of me

I met a businessman

Who said he got some friends back east

Said why don't you come along

Well we could help you atleast

Make you into a big star

By playing your guitar

But the joke was on me

They left me flat to see

Going back west

Yes I know I'll make out alright

Going back west

Where my music's playing all night

Going back west

Going back west

I think I'll do alright

Going back west

Yes I know I'll make out alright

Going back west

Where my music's playing all night

Going back west

Going back west

I think I'll do alright

Struggling for recognition identity and respect

I got a lot of promises they told me not to fret

Said we will stand by you

If the going gets rough

But when I started sinking

They didn't even bluff

'Bout a year has come and gone

'Bout a year has come and gone

And left me standing here

And left me standing here

Thinking how it could have been

'Cause still I ain't nowhere

They surely took me for a ride

Trampled on my pride

But I'll hold my head up high

Got no more tears to cry

Going back west

Yes I know I'll make out alright

Going back west

Where my music's playing all night

Going back west

Going back west

I think I'll do alright

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Going back west

Think I'll do alright

Going back west

Going back west

Yes I know I'll make out alright

Going back west

Going back west

Where my music's playing all night
