Lyrics

[Verse 1]

My life is changing

And I'm feeling blue

The things I wished for

Have come true, oh

[Verse 2]

Stop!

I really, really wanna go back

Back to where I came from

[Verse 3]

Stop!

I really, really wanna go back

Back to where I belong

[Verse 4]

Now I'm getting up and leaving

I'm leaving home

Now I'm getting up and leaving

I wanna go home

[Verse 5]

Don't write no music

Don't read no books

Don't call my baby

On the phone

[Verse 6]

Oh, stop!

I really, really wanna go back

Back to where I came from

Stop!

I really, really wanna go back

Back to where I belong

[Verse 7]

Now I'm getting up and leaving

I'm leaving home

Now I'm getting up and leaving

I wanna go home

[Verse 8]

Now I'm getting up

Now I'm getting up

Now I'm getting up and leaving

(Now I'm getting up)

(Now I'm getting up)

Now, now I'm leaving
