Tift Merritt Write My Ticket Lyrics

This city must belong to someone
But it don't belong to me
From the window I got here
I count the traffic through my tears
Wanting to write my ticket
Write my ticket home

Chorus:
I got to get
Back in the arms
Of a man who loves me
I got to get
Back to the people who have
Always been proud of me
Take me back
I was wrong
Write my ticket
Home

Place called Suzy's
I'm a waitress
Sue says
"Girl, you'll get used to all this"
There is no way she could see
How much that cold rain
Gets to me
How much I'd trade it
For a picture in my mind

Chorus:
I got to get
Back in the arms
Of a man who loves me
I got to get
Back to the people who have
Always been proud of me
Take me back
I was wrong
Write my ticket
Home

I can hear them
Sitting around joking
"She talk so big
"Lord she come back broken"
Well I had to try
I ain't so proud
I wish I were
Talking about nothing
With them right now

Chorus:
I got to get
Back in the arms
Of a man who loves me
I got to get
Back to the people who have
Always been proud of me
Take me back
I was wrong
Write my ticket
Home
---

Write my ticket
Write my ticket
Write my ticket
Home
