Well, I've been to the city, yes I've seen the city fair
I've climbed atop its buildings and I've breathed it's smoggy air
It's like some kind of desert made of concrete and steel
And if you were to ask me, then I'd tell you how I feel
Everything's hurry and wait there, and I'm tired to the bone
And there's just too many people and I'm ready to go home
I'm ready to go home, I'm ready to go home
We've been gone for way too long, and I'm ready to go home
We'll I've been on vacation, yes, I've seen most everything
I've been to California and I've been to New Orleans
Now I'm sick of writing letters and just talking on the phone
I wanna see your face dear and I'm ready to go home
I'm ready to go home, I'm ready to go home
We've been gone for way too long, and I'm ready to go home
We've been gone for way too long, and I'm ready to go home
