Katmandu Lyrics

I THINK I'M GOING TO KATMANDU,

THAT'S REALLY, REALLY WHERE I'M GOING TO.

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE,

THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA DO.

K-K-K-K-K-KATMANDU,

I THINK THAT'S WHERE I'M GOING TO.

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE,

I'M GOING TO KATMANDU.



I GOT NO KICK AGAINST THE WEST COAST

WARNER BROTHERS ARE SUCH GOOD HOSTS.

I RAISE MY WHISKEY GLASS AND GIVE THEM A TOAST,

I'M SURE THEY KNOW IT'S TRUE.

I GOT NO RAP AGAINST THE SOUTHERN STATES.

EVERY TIME I'VE BEEN THERE IT'S BEEN GREAT.

BUT NOW I'M LEAVING AND I CAN'T BE LATE

AND TO MYSELF BE TRUE.



THAT'S WHY I'M GOING TO KATMANDU,

UP TO THE MOUNTAINS WHERE I'M GOING TO,

AND IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA DO.

K - K - K - K - K - KATMANDU,

THAT'S REALLY, REALLY WHERE I'M GOING TO,

OH, IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE I'M GOING TO KATMANDU.



I GOT NO QUARREL WITH THE MIDWEST,

THE FOLKS OUT THERE HAVE GIVEN ME THIER BEST.

I LIVED THERE ALL MY LIFE, I'VE BEEN THIER GUEST,

I SURE HAVE LOVED IT, TOO.

I'M TIRED OF LOOKING AT THE T.V. NEWS.

I'M TIRED OF DRIVING HARD AND PAYING DUES.

I FIGURE, BABY, I'VE GOT NOTHING TO LOSE,

I'M TIRED OF BEING BLUE.



THAT'S WHY I'M GOING TO KATMANDU,

UP TO THE MOUNTAINS WHERE I'M GOING TO.

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA DO.

K - K - K - K - K - KATMANDU,

TAKE ME, BABY, 'CAUSE I'M GOING WITH YOU.

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE I'M GOING TO KATMANDU.



I AIN'T GOT NOTHING 'GAINST THE EAST COAST.

YOU WANT SOME PEOPLE WHERE THEY GOT THE MOST.

AND NEW YORK CITY'S LIKE A FRIENDLY GHOST,

YOU SEEM TO PASS RIGHT THROUGH.

I KNOW I'M GONNA MISS THE U.S.A.,

I GUESS I'LL MISS IT EVERY SINGLE DAY,

BUT NO ONE LOVES ME HERE ANYWAY,

I KNOW MY PLANE IS DUE.



THE ONE THAT'S GOING TO KATMANDU,

UP TO THE MOUNTAINS WHERE I'M GOING TO.

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE,

THAT'S WHAT I'M GONNA DO.



K-K-K-K-K-KATMANDU,

REALLY, REALLY GOING TO,

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE,

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE,

IF I EVER GET OUT OF HERE,

I'M GOING TO KATMANDU
