Janis, Don’t Go Back

Janis, don’t go back to Texas
And give yourself out one more time
I know you grieve for acceptance
But darling can’t you let that old thing die

But if you should get an invitation
And you feel you really need to go
Maybe at last you’ll find appreciation
But I wouldn’t bet on it being so

Janis don’t go back to Texas
And let them see from where those blues arise
Remember there are folks along the west
Who don’t ever want to see their Janis cry
Don’t you go and cry
Don’t cry
