L. A. WOMAN

If this is where it’s all they said
You’re such a silly girl
Livin’ high on the hill
Stalkin’ your crazy world

You never thought it would be like this
You wanna run and hide
Down in the backstreets
Down on Rodeo Drive

You followed your wit
Its tease and smile
He said you’d be a star
He was right, you were wrong
Now look just where you are

The bedroom scene was your disgrace
You ran away and cried
Down in the back streets
Down on Rodeo Drive

Got a high school education
And it’s drivin you insane
You’re a favourite of the nation
Aren’t you tired of playing
The silly games

Got a nice girl reputation
And you always aren’t too sure
You’re a favourite of the nation
Gotta stop doing things
You thought you could

l.a. woman, what’s on your mind
Your friends have left you far behind
You’ve been blind, so very blind
