Well, I wanna be where it's at
I don't really care where I just sat
I wanna be, be right where it's at
I got rocks in my head and a hole right in my hat

Well, I wanna be where there's fun
I don't really care where the fun comes from
I wanna be, be right where there's fun
Well, I ain't comin' home 'til the whole thing comes undone

Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
I may be dead and gone
But they'll say I was a real gone cat

Well, I wanna be where there's some trash
Don't care if I spend my cold hard cash
I wanna be, be right where there's trash
I've got a hand full of gold I wanna turn it into ash

Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
I may be dead and gone
But they'll say I was a real gone cat

Well I tried everything to be where it's at
Well I tried everything to be where it's at

Well I tried everything to be where it's at
I tried the pills, the powders and weed
A couple of filthy women to suit my need
Hey listen - too many parties and too many pals
Too many Sallies and too many Sals (sows?)

I said one time a friend of mine came up to me and said
"Man, all you gotta do is kinda stand in one spot
Look up just a little bit
That's when you got it. "

Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
Well, I wanna be where it's at
I may be dead and gone
But the??? Was a brand new jack
