| She hangs around the boulevard
|
| Shes a local girl with local scars.
|
| She got home late, she got home late
|
| She drank so hard the bottle ached.
|
| And she tried and she tried, she tried and she tried,
|
| But nothings clear in a bar full of lies.
|
| So she takes and she takes, she takes and she takes,
|
| She understands when she gives it away,
|
| She says, man I gotta get out of this town
|
| Man I gotta get out of this pain.
|
| Man I gotta get out of this town,
|
| Out of this town, and out of the way.
|
| Shes got a gun; |
| shes got a gun,
|
| She got a gun she calls the lucky one.
|
| She left a note, by the phone,
|
| Dont leave a message cause this aint no home.
|
| And she cried and she cried, she cried and she cried,
|
| She cried so long her tears ran dry.
|
| And she laughed and she laughed, she laughed and she laughed,
|
| Cause she knew she was never comin back.
|
| She said, man Im gonna get out of this town
|
| Man Im gonna get out of this pain.
|
| Man Im gonna get out of this town,
|
| Out of this town, and out of the way
|
| Its all she loves, Its all she hates,
|
| Its all to much for her to take
|
| She cant be sure, just where it ends,
|
| Or where the good life begins.
|
| So she took a train, she took a train,
|
| To a little old town without a name.
|
| She met a man, he took her in,
|
| But fed her all the same bullshit again.
|
| And he lied and he lied, he lied and he lied,
|
| He lied like a salesman sellin flies.
|
| So she screamed and she screamed, she screamed and she screamed,
|
| Its a different place but the same old thing.
|
| Its all I loves, Its all I hates,
|
| Its all to much for me to take
|
| I cant be sure, just where it ends,
|
| Or where the good life lies within.
|
| She says, man I gotta get out of this town
|
| Now I gotta get back on that train.
|
| Man I gotta get out of this town,
|
| Im out of my pain, so Im goin back to L.A.
|
| Back to L. A Back to L. A Im goin back to L.A.
|
| Im goin back to L.A. |
