Got a call from an old friend
"We used to be real close
Said he couldn't go on the American way
Closed the shop, sold the house
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A."
Maybe it's about someone who lost there rural roots and sold there soul to Hollywood.
I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright
I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
Go ahead with your own life and leave me alone
Possibly about how people leave there birthplace and expect there birthplace to follow (ie:old friends)
