Save Me, San Francisco - Live at the Independent, San Francisco, CA - April 2012

I used to love the tenderloin

Until I made some tender coin

And then I met some ladies from Marin

We took the highway to the one,

Up the coast to catch some sun

They left me with these blisters on my skin

Don't know what I was on,

But I think it grows in Oregon,

So I kept on goin' going on right through

I drove into Seattle rain

Fell in love then missed the train

That could have took me right back home to you

I've been high, I've been low,

I've been yes, and I've been oh, hell no!

I've been rock 'n roll and disco,

Won't you save me San Francisco?

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh

(Oh, oh, oh oh oh oh)

Every day so caffeinated

I wish they were golden gated

Fillmore couldn't feel more miles away

So wrap me up return to sender

Let's forget this five year bender

Take me to my city by the bay

I never knew all that I had,

Now Alcatraz don't sound so bad

At least they have a hella fine Merlot

If I could wish upon a star

I would hitch a cable car

To the place that I can always call my own

I've been high, I've been low,

I've been yes, and I've been oh, hell no!

I've been rock 'n roll and disco,

Won't you save me San Francisco?

I've been up, I've been down,

I've been so damn lost since you're not around,

I been reggae and calypso

Won't you save me San Francisco?

To tell you the truth

I miss everything, everything

It's a wild, wild beautiful world

But there's a wide eyed girl back there

And she means everything, everything,

I've been stop, I've been go

I've been yes and I've been oh, hell no!

I've been rock and roll and disco,

Won't you save me San Francisco?

I've been up, I've been down,

I've been so damn lost since you're not around,

I've been reggae and calypso,

Won't you save me San Francisco?

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh

(Oh, oh, oh) save me San Francisco)

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh

Won't you save me San Francisco

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh

(Oh, oh, oh) save me San Francisco

(Oh, oh, oh)

Oh, oh

Won't you save me San Francisco
