girls who leave the east for San Francisco
tired of the east coast dragging them down
and they can dance all night in San Francisco
they just can't do that in their hometown

girls who leave the east for San Francisco
think San Francisco's probably their best bet
they're tired of making trips to New York City
but they don't wanna live there, not just yet

girls who leave the east for San Francisco
want somewhere to go and be themselves
they wanna get back what they've stolen
gonna steal it back from someone else

girls who leave the east for San Francisco
can stay with some people that they know
they can meet the girls of San Francisco
who left the east a long, long time ago

girls who leave the east for San Francisco
call their eastern boyfriends now and then
and say they've been thinking maybe they still love them
just in case things don't work out out west

girls who leave the east for San Francisco
aren't proud of everything they've been
but no one knows them yet in San Francisco
they won't make the same mistakes again
