| I left my mother feelin' sick in her bedroom
|
| My daddy told me, «Son, you best grow up»
|
| I told my friends, they can find me on the internet
|
| 'Cause somehow this place just ain’t enough
|
| Collect call from my brother in the lock up
|
| He said he paid his dues but could I pay him too
|
| My best friend is stealin' money from my pocket
|
| I guess it’s time to go, when they said
|
| «Who, who are you?""Who are you really anymore?»
|
| I said, «Who, who am I, I don’t know what I’m headed for»
|
| I said, «Oh no, oh no, I’m leaving again»
|
| I said, «Goodbye, so long», to my, my neighborhood
|
| And I know, I know, I’ll see you again
|
| 'Cause I’ll always, always come back
|
| To my neighborhood, to my neighborhood
|
| I threw my troubles and my bags in the back seat
|
| Pulled up the drive, for one last look
|
| She was standin' in the doorway lonely, I had to lean in close
|
| When she said, «Who, who are you?""Who are you really anymore?»
|
| I said, «Who, who am I, I don’t know what I’m fighting for»
|
| Oh no, oh no, I’m leaving again
|
| I said, «Goodbye, so long», to my, my neighborhood
|
| And I know, I know I’ll see you again
|
| 'Cause I’ll always, always come back
|
| To my neighborhood, to my neighborhood, to my neighborhood
|
| Came back last night just to see you
|
| It’s been too long but nothing’s changed
|
| I’m trying to be the one you can’t be
|
| Baby these dreams they are to blame
|
| I can hear it in your voice that you do know
|
| It’s not a choice for me to stay
|
| So long, goodbye to the neighborhood
|
| To my neighborhood
|
| Oh no, oh no, I’m leaving again
|
| I said, «Goodbye, so long», to my, my neighborhood
|
| And I know, I know I’ll see you again
|
| 'Cause I’ll always, always come back
|
| To my neighborhood, my neighborhood, my neighborhood, my neighborhood |
