East Coast Girl - Butch Walker

Written by：Butch Walker

Yeah everything's going pretty par for the course

Got back problems grey hair craving a porsche

If you make it this far without killing yourself

You got it made though

Got a little place in venice next to a lady with nine cats

Walk up abbott kinney watching business collapse

It all reminds me when you moved here from new york in '88

Yeah

So johnnie tell me that you're alright

I wanna cover you up tonight

Give me one more chance to show you something real

You can run but you can't hide

It's a cruel cruel summer outside

Shine on little baby you're too good for this world

Just another broken east coast girl

There's a guy on lincoln boulevard where I get my medication

I wake up after three hours and I fall asleep mid conversation

I'm pretty sure it's a habit

But I'll talk myself out of that one too you know

You were always good at talking us out of trouble with the cops

Made everybody feel good about the fact that they were not

I just wish I could go back in time

And find that perfect moment for you

So johnnie tell me that you're alright

I wanna cover you up tonight

Give me one more chance to show you something real

You can run but you can't hide

It's a cruel cruel summer outside

Shine on little baby you're too good for this world

Just another broken east coast girl

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you now

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you now

So johnnie tell me that you're alright

I wanna cover you up tonight

Give me one more chance to show you something real

You can run but you can't hide

It's a cruel cruel summer outside

Shine on little baby you're too good for this world

Just another broken east coast girl

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you now

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you

Baby baby baby where are you now
