Going Back West - Boney M (波尼M)[00:00:00]
Written by:Jimmy Cliff[00:00:00]
I was born and raised in the Ghetto[00:00:07]
Talk with me and you'll know[00:00:12]
I wasn't satisfied with living on the side[00:00:16]
I started looking around for a possibility[00:00:24]
But listen to my story of what became of me[00:00:32]
I met a businessman[00:00:40]
Who said he got some friends back east[00:00:43]
Said why don't you come along[00:00:48]
Well we could help you atleast[00:00:52]
Make you into a big star[00:00:56]
By playing your guitar[00:01:00]
But the joke was on me[00:01:04]
They left me flat to see[00:01:08]
Going back west[00:01:13]
Yes I know I'll make out alright[00:01:15]
Going back west[00:01:21]
Where my music's playing all night[00:01:23]
Going back west[00:01:29]
Going back west[00:01:31]
I think I'll do alright[00:01:32]
Going back west[00:01:37]
Yes I know I'll make out alright[00:01:39]
Going back west[00:01:45]
Where my music's playing all night[00:01:47]
Going back west[00:01:53]
Going back west[00:01:55]
I think I'll do alright[00:01:57]
Struggling for recognition identity and respect[00:02:04]
I got a lot of promises they told me not to fret[00:02:13]
Said we will stand by you[00:02:20]
If the going gets rough[00:02:25]
But when I started sinking[00:02:29]
They didn't even bluff[00:02:32]
'Bout a year has come and gone[00:02:37]
'Bout a year has come and gone[00:02:39]
And left me standing here[00:02:41]
And left me standing here[00:02:43]
Thinking how it could have been[00:02:45]
'Cause still I ain't nowhere[00:02:49]
They surely took me for a ride[00:02:53]
Trampled on my pride[00:02:57]
But I'll hold my head up high[00:03:01]
Got no more tears to cry[00:03:05]
Going back west[00:03:09]
Yes I know I'll make out alright[00:03:12]
Going back west[00:03:18]
Where my music's playing all night[00:03:20]
Going back west[00:03:25]
Going back west[00:03:28]
I think I'll do alright[00:03:29]
Going back west[00:03:34]
Going back west[00:03:35]
Going back west[00:03:36]
Going back west[00:03:38]
Going back west[00:03:42]
Going back west[00:03:43]
Going back west[00:03:44]
Going back west[00:03:46]
Going back west[00:03:50]
Going back west[00:03:52]
Think I'll do alright[00:03:53]
Going back west[00:03:58]
Going back west[00:04:00]
Yes I know I'll make out alright[00:04:01]
Going back west[00:04:03]
Going back west[00:04:06]
Where my music's playing all night[00:04:08]
