I was born here ‘tween the mud and the blood and the clay
And I left here on a stone cold winter’s day
I can still hear all those voices callin’ to me,
“When you come back here girl, you be crawlin’ on yo’ knees!”
Lip smack, cracker jack, give that dog a bone
Fuck that, take it back, I get by just fine on my own.
And I’ve come so many worlds, since I left home
So many worlds since i left home
Seems so strange here all these streets I called my home
Seem such a long time coming, oh such a long time gone
Seen so many places that young man could be
Only people change, there ain’t no difference in me
Seems so diff’rent here
Charter touched down on time
Faces behind the windwos
I’ll give a smile
And wave
Goodbye
