Jet Lag

歌詞

I'm goin' back to New York City Times Square sure will be shinin' bright I know it sure looks pretty But I don't go down every night. I'm gonna take in Memphis You know the one down in Tennessee And if you wanna boogie Now that's the place to be. Sittin' in a bar in Macon Drinkin' something called Rebel Yells When I thought I heard someone ringing I guess she's a southern bell. We just cut out of El Paso It just fries there in that desert sun And if you've ever been down there, man Then you know why we run. I got jet lag And livin' out an overnight bag Time changes every day They do things a different way Back in the U.S.A. Tryin' hard to make a phone call "Long distance over seas" "Yes, ma'am, I did say Scotland" "Could you spell that again for me please?" Way down west to Colorado You know that it just blew my mind I'd love to go back there next trip I sure hope we get some time. Driving down a Detroit freeway Just lookin' at those concrete walls Hey but it's a good town to rock'n'roll in "What do you mean the police closed the goddamned hall?" Flyin' home tomorrow To be there's gonna be just great And after some time with my lady I'm gonna be back to rock'n'roll in the States. (copyright 1974 mountain/carlin music)
