Lazarus, Ze Gitan

Let's go

My first love was a chick from the sticks, named Geneva

Had to take the 88 upstate just to see her

My mama never liked her

My father didn't either

After 22 years I got eager and had to leave her

Now I'm realizin' how much I really need her

But somethin' told me follow my heart and head eastward

That's when I met Brooklyn, but Brooklyn was a cheater

The second I turned my back

Jay and Weezy tag-teamed her

So I started packin'

She asked me what happened

Told her I was leavin' her for her older sister Manhattan

Manhattan was into rap and so we started chit-chatting

She was Chinese, Italian, Black and a quarter Latin

Super high maintenance and way too into fashion

Didn't even tell her peace, I left a number on a napkin

Damn, but back then was back then

Now I heard she went Hollywood and began actin'

Oh, I've been lookin' for love

In all the wrong places

Oh somebody take me home

Oh, I've been fallin' in love

With all the wrong faces

Oh somebody take me home

Please take me home

And after Manhattan, I was actin' silly

Messin' with this thick body joint named Philly

But that ain't work out too great

I'm vegetarian and all she ate was cheese steak

I went to Baltimore more for Mary Ann

And almost got married man

But she was self-centered always stuck in Maryland

I knew a slim thing named Virginia

Swear to God her body's smoking but she keep gettin' thinner

And I'll never forget my first trissie

In the Benz with the Carolina twins gettin' busy

I know they miss me but I had to leave early

On the 85 doin' 85, ridin' dirty

And my Georgia peach Savannah

Used to stay in Atlanta

Accent so thick I couldn't even understand her

And that's when I realized

I damn near ran through the whole I-95 (Whoa)

Oh, I've been lookin' for love

In all the wrong places

Oh somebody take me home

Oh, I've been fallin' in love

With all the wrong faces

Oh somebody take me home

Please take me home

Yeah, then I met Miami, she was Spanish

Miami te amo, me llamo Travie

She could tell that I wasn't bilingual

I said I don't know todito, but I know un poquito

We can hit south beach and drink Mojitos

And maybe you can introduce me to your peoples

Ha, yo no voy paidra

My first love, keep on callin'

Yo no voy paya

I think I finally found where Imma stay, at I-95 But never forget the 88, No

Oh, I've been lookin' for love

In all the wrong places

Oh somebody take me home

Oh, I've been fallin' in love

With all the wrong faces

Oh somebody take me home

Please take me home
