Ticked Back
(Martha Trachtenberg/BMI)

1. I search all the passin` faces  oh but I do not know.
   I`m losen` all my social graces,
   I learned as a girl at home.  I learned as a girl at home.

2. I came here as a stranger  do not take me for a fool.
   I did not know the danger,
   I lived by other wools.  I lived by other wools.

Ref: And I still have a ticket back,  it`s in my pocket book.
    Only with a city map.
    Oh I still have a ticket back  it won`t take me home.

3. I can see the constelations  beyond the city lights,
   no wheels in` on her rise on
   as I look out on the night.  I look out every nights.

4. Oh times are ride the train downtown,  it takes me to the sea,
   my home`s across the water,
   but there`s nothing there for me.  There`s no one there for me.

Ref: And I still have a ticket back,  it`s in my pocket book...

5. I came here as a stranger  do not take me for a fool.
   I did not know the danger,
   I lived by other wools.  I`m learning all your wools.

Ref: And I still have a ticket back,  it`s in my pocket book...
   ...
   Only with a city map.
   Oh I still have a ticket back.
   Still have a ticket back.
   Only with a city map.
   Oh I still have a ticket back
   it won`t take me home.
