Lyrics Going Back West

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

Listen to my story of what became of me

I met a businessman who said he had some friends back east

So why don't you come along? well we can help you at least

We'll 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

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

I think I'll do alright

Struggling for recognition identity and respect

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

So we will stand by you if the going gets rough

But when I started thinking they didn't even bluff

'Bout a year has come and gone and left me standing here

Thinking how it could have been for still I ain't nowhere

They surely took me for a ride trampled on my pride

But I 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

I think I'll do alright 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

I think I'll do alright going back west
