Going Back West
Boney M


I was born
and raised in the ghetto
Talk with me and
you'll know
I wasn't satisfied, with living on
the side
I started looking around, for a
possibility

Listen to my story, of what
became of me

I met a businessman
Who
said he had some friends back east
So why
don't you come along
Well we can help you at
least
We'll make you into a big star
By
playing your guitar
But the joke was on
me
They left me flat to see

Going back
west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going
back west
Where my music's playing all
night
Going back west (going back west)
I
think I'll do alright

Going back
west
Yes I know I'll make out alright
Going
back west
Where my music's playing all
night
Going back west (going back west)
I
think I'll do alright

Struggling for
recognition, identity and respect
I got a lot
of promises
They told me not to fret
So we
will stand by you
If the going gets
rough
But when I started thinking
They
didn't even bluff

'bout a year has come
and gone
And left me standing here
Thinking
how it could have been
For still I ain't
nowhere
They surely took me for a
ride
Trampled on my pride
But I hold my
head up high
Got no more tears to
cry

Going back west
Yes I know I'll
make out alright
Going back west
Where my
music's playing all night
Going back west
(going back west)
I think I'll do
alright

Going back west
Yes I know I'll
make out alright
Going back west
Where my
music's playing all night
Going back west
(going back west)
I think I'll do
alright

Going back west
Yes I know I'll
make out alright
Going back west
Where my
music's playing all night
