I think I'd like to go back home
And take it easy
There's a woman that I'd like to get to know
Living there
Everybody seems to wonder
What it's like down here
I gotta get away from this day-to-day running around
Everybody knows this is nowhere
Everybody, everybody knows
Everybody knows
Every time I think about back home
It's cool and breezy
I wish that I could be there right now
Just passing time
Everybody seems to wonder
What it's like down here
I gotta get away from this day-to-day running around
Everybody knows this is nowhere
Everybody, everybody knows
Everybody knows
[alternate lyrics from 1969-10-16, The Canterbury House, Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA]
I think I'd like to go back home
And take it easy
There's a woman that I'd like to get to know
Living there
Everybody seems to wonder
What it's like down here
I gotta get away from this day-to-day running around
Everybody knows this is nowhere
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Every time I think about back home
It's cool and breezy
I wish that I could be there right now
Just passing time
Everybody seems to wonder
What it's like down here
You get money in your eyes
And your friends tell lies
And everybody likes you the way you were
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody, everybody, everybody knows
