Going Back West Lyrics - 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 

 

Photos 

 

'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
