| I feel the wind blow on the corner
|
| And I’m looking down along this dead end street
|
| All the people are getting older
|
| But they don’t give a damn their lives are incomplete
|
| It don’t look no better than it did before
|
| And I know what’s happening behind each door
|
| If I don’t get out today, I’m gonna waste my life away
|
| And that’s a part that I can’t play
|
| I don’t wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
|
| Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we’ve got to steal away
|
| As a young boy I didn’t fit in
|
| And I knew it then I wouldn’t be the same
|
| But that was only in the beginning
|
| And as the time rolled on deeper grew the pain
|
| So give me one good reason why I should stay
|
| I think I’ve got enough money for the late night train
|
| There’s a world you’ve never seen, but I’ve been there in my dreams
|
| It’s calling out to me
|
| I don’t wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
|
| Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we’ve got to steal away
|
| If I don’t get out today, I’m gonna waste my life away
|
| I’m gonna waste my life away, and that’s a part that I can’t play
|
| I don’t wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
|
| Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we’ve got to steal away
|
| I don’t wanna spend my whole life in this town, I can feel it driving me away
|
| Baby you and me were meant for higher ground, we’ve got to steal away
|
| You and me baby, we’ve got to steal away, turn it on, turn it on |
