How Could It Come To This?!
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She came in by Tarzana Reseda
With the dust of the streets in her hair
She was trading the noise
And the hard city boys
For a breath of that sweet country air
She said Topanga you're so pretty
You've got it on the city
The sidewalk street life gets me down
I loved a city slicker
But now he's just a face in town
Another in the crowd
But she couldn't help getting the feeling
That her dreams had to come to an end
And he found her one day
Took her back to L.A.
In the car of a gray-suited friend
But they just wouldn't listen
To just another low-life girl that made it bad
She's back home on the sidewalk
The city slicker looks so glad
But he still treats her bad
Ooh this hard city boy
Makes a young girl so sad
But Topanga stays so pretty
And back home in the city
The city slicker gets her down
Another year of waiting
I know she's gotta leave that town
Cos Topanga's so fine
And I know she's gonna drop me a line
And she's gonna say
Please, please take me home
Home to Topanga
Please, please take me home
Home to Topanga
