The road it has been rough
And these pages have been torn
Been busted flat on Bowery
Robbed blind down by the shore
But love will call you by the name
Like Leonard always said
Come back from California and share my single bed
Your eyes are made of glass
But my heart's been caste in stone
See "the highway is for gamblers"
And the gambler dies alone
Like in every country song I've heard
And every book I've read
Come back from California and share my single bed
I held you close in Greenwich (Village)
On the night I watched you leave
We were talkin' WWIII
With both our hearts upon our sleeves
One kiss and all these thoughts of you
Won't ever leave my head
Come back from California and share my single bed
