Tel Aviv - Jill Sobule

I’m climbing the stairway

That leads from the kitchen

In a bar in Tel Aviv

He asks for my age

He thinks I’m a virgin

That’s why he asked for me

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody come get me

I dream of my country

I think of my mother

I send her what I can

She thinks I’m a waitress

She’s proud I’m a waitress

In the promised land

They promised me work

And they promised me TV

They promised I’d never get bored

I’m back on the stairway

I’m higher than ever

They promised that I could get more

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody come get me

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody come get me

There’s a boat down on the shore

Wish I could steal away

I’m back on the farm

With my friend Sofia

She’s running and laughing out loud

We’re down by the river

In the middle of summer

I wish he’d get off of me now

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody’s missing me

Somebody come get me
