Hello LA, Bye-Bye Birmingham

歌詞

(Delaney Bramlett & MacDavis) I packed everything I own And I put it in a knapsack I'm leaving Birmingham, yes I am And I ain't lookin' back I bought me a guitar and I wrote a song I played it for the D.J. on the telephone. Going out to Hollywood, feeling good, yes I am Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham Alright! Riding on a Greyhound bus 'Cross the Tennessee borderline Eating from a Po' Boy sandwich Taking drinks from a quart of wine I got to get off at the very last stop My ticket's only good to Little Rock. Going out to Hollywood, feeling good, yes I am Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham. I got mixed up with a big city woman in Little Rock I had to spend a week one time in the county jail I had to take a two-day job to get my guitar out of hock That's the way it goes when you got no dough to make bail. I ran out of transportation funds, I had to hitchhike I caught me a ride with a tattooed dude on a motorbike People gonna know when I'm in town Heads are gonna turn when they hear my sound. Going out to Hollywood, feeling good, yes I am Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham Ow, Uh! You know that I'm tired of going down I believe I'm gonna leave this town I'm leaving Birmingham, Yes I am Yes I am, Yes I am! Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham Hello L.A., bye bye Birmingham Bye bye Birmingham Bye bye Birmingham Bye bye Birmingham Bye bye Birmingham Bye bye Birmingham!
