Write My Ticket

by The Sleepy Jackson

This city must belong to someone
But it don't belong to me
From the window I got here
I count the traffic through my tears
Wanting to write my ticket
Write my ticket home
Chorus:
I got to get
Back in the arms
Of a man who loves me
I got to get
Back to the people who have
Always been proud of me
Take me back
I was wrong
Write my ticket
Home
Place called Suzy's
I'm a waitress
Sue says
Girl, you'll get used to all this
There is no way she could see
How much that cold rain
Gets to me
How much I'd trade it
For a picture in my mind
Chorus:
I got to get
Back in the arms
Of a man who loves me
I got to get
Back to the people who have
Always been proud of me
Take me back
I was wrong
Write my ticket
Home
I can hear them
Sitting around joking
She talk so big
Lord she come back broken
Well I had to try
I ain't so proud
I wish I were
Talking about nothing
With them right now
Chorus:
I got to get
Back in the arms
Of a man who loves me
I got to get
Back to the people who have
Always been proud of me
Take me back
I was wrong
Write my ticket
Home
