L.A. Lyrics

Got a friend in East LA

She asks when I'm on my way

Going wading, water's warm

But I've heard the sirens swarm

Ohhh

I've been tracing the same old lines

Ohhh

Leave it all behind

Run west, sell your soul

Over to the sunny side

Where the fire takes a toll

And still they call it paradise

When I'm really there I'll know

If I could call her my own

Ooo if it's LA, then you can say I told you so

Year in Boston turns to two

Sick and safe in hometown blues

Steady sailing, family car

It won't get me very far

Ohhh

I've been tracing the same old lines

Ohhh

Leave it all behind

Run west, sell your soul

Over to the sunny side

Where the fire takes a toll

And still they call it paradise

When I'm really there I'll know

If I could call her my own

Ooo if it's LA, then you can say I told you so

I wanna breathe in something new

I wanna give in to the blue

I wanna breathe in something new oh

I wanna give in to the ahhh

Run west, sell your soul

Over to the sunny side

Where the fire takes a toll

And still they call it paradise

Oh when I'm really there I'll know

If I could call her my own

Baby if it's LA then you can say I told you so

Oh when I'm really there I'll know

If I could call her my own

Ooo if it's LA, then you can say I told you so
