The meaning of this song is simple. Some people are just born to go from place to place and don't want to settle down. And spending longer periods of time in one place, especially if it is a big town like L.A.( ''City of angels” of course refers to Los Angeles,where he lived).
''This easy living, it sure tastes good.
Let's make a killing down in Hollywood,
Then buy ourselves some nice, fancy home in the hills.
Oh, spend our time spending ten dollar bills.'' this verse i find extremely sarcastic and ironic... Like he is mocking.
''You leave me far away from home.'' His home is everywhere, he can't stand to be caged.
