Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner  
But he knew it wouldn’t last  
Jojo left his home in Tucson, Arizona  
For some California grass

Get back, get back  
Get back to where you once belonged  
Get back, get back  
Get back to where you once belonged  
Get back Jojo  
Go home

I went from Phoenix, Arizona  
All the way to Tacoma  
Philadelphia, Atlanta, L.A.  
Northern California  
Where the girls are warm  
So I could be with my sweet baby, yeah

I’ve been to Hollywood  
I’ve been to Redwood  
I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold.  
I’ve been in my mind,  
It’s such a fine line  
That keeps me searching for a heart of gold.  
And I’m getting old.

If I can just get off of this LA freeway  
Without getting killed or caught  
I’d be down that road in a cloud of smoke  
For some land that I ain’t bought bought bought

With the radio playin’ our song  
We keep rollin’ on  
Who knows how far a car can get  
Before you think about slowin’, slowin’ down, yeah

City traffic’s movin’ way too slow  
Drop the pedal and go, go  
Come on now, go

We goin’ ridin’ on the freeway of love  
Wind’s against our back  
We goin’ ridin’ on the freeway of love  
In my pink Cadillac

I love you for your pink Cadillac  
Crushed velvet seats  
Riding in the back, oozing down the street  
Waving to the girls, peeling out of sight  
Spending all my money on a Saturday night  
Honey, I just wonder what you do  
There in the back of your pink Cadillac  
Pink Cadillac

But it was Saturday night  
I guess that makes it all right  
And you say what have I got to lose?  
And honey I say

Little red Corvette  
Baby you’re much too fast  
Little red Corvette  
You need a love that’s gonna last

Saturday night and the bar is packed.  
The drinks are watered and the decks are stacked.  
The whores are grinning with their faces cracked,  
And the gamblers cursing the horses they backed.  
Saturday night and the bar is jammed.  
We’ve got our table and the rest be damned.  
Our waiter’s are hovering near at hand.  
We’re loaded earlier than we planned.  
Some damn fool is starting a fight,  
Why does he wait for Saturday night?

Don’t give us none of your aggravation  
We had it with your discipline  
Saturday night’s alright for fighting  
Get a little action in

Get about as oiled as a diesel train  
Gonna set this dance alight  
`Cause Saturday night’s the night I like  
Saturday night’s alright alright alright

Another fella told me he had a sister who looked just fine  
Instead of being my deliverance, she had a strange resemblance  
to a cat named Frankenstein

Here’s another Saturday night and I ain’t got nobody  
I got some money 'cause I just got paid  
How I wish I had some chick to talk to  
I’m in an awful way

Did-did-did-did you see the frightened ones?  
Did-did-did-did you hear the falling bombs?  
The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.

Goodbye, blue sky  
Goodbye, blue sky, goodbye

In the truth of the light,  
There’s a calm in your eyes, call to us.  
As we lay on our sides,  
Lookin’ up to the skies.  
All around, they were closing in.

The wolves are comin’ out,  
Light the fire and you’ll see them all arrive

Howl! [Seven days to the wolves!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro0R_MxwwRs)  
Where will we be when they come?  
Seven days to the poison  
And a place in heaven  
Time drawing near us  
They come to take us…HOME

The city - it calls to me  
Decadent scenes from my memory  
Sorrow - eternity  
My demons are coming to drown me  
Help - I’m falling - I’m crawling  
I can’t keep away from its clutch  
Can’t have it - this habit  
It’s calling me back to my home

'Cause I’m thankful for the day I found you  
Feels so good to be around you  
Love is calling me home  
I finally found what I’ve been looking for  
Walking through that open door  
Your love is calling me home
