about

Original track from Bud Freeman Trio 78 disc - "Exactly Like You" - 1938.

lyrics

When they lay may body down
Let it be here
There aint no town I know
Like Los Angeles
When you put me down in that old hole
Just know it will be in this old barrio

I aint got no home,
Not like I have in Los Angeles

We got Satan, drugs, and rock'n'roll
Just down the block
It's where the young and foolish flock
You need a hit? You need it quick?
Come on down to Los Angeles

I know demons from home
And I know some girls in porn
They all call this home
Why don;t you call it yours?

Its got the sights you need
Like hobos on the street
The sun may shine, but not down in your soul

Los Angeles I love you so!
Why do you treat me wrong?
Is it who I was? Or who I am going to be down in these streets?
Los Angeles!

Boy how far you've come
Don't worry son, you have a place to fall
In Los Angeles, hell is just below
It's just below in Los Angeles
