Make my supper on beans and greens, I eat cornbread for breakfast
I don't do much talking anymore since I've come to my senses
If I make it outta here alive, I'll be thumbing outta town on the 99

Living in the city with a girl so pretty, why can't I just get by?
Got a million things to do, I can't choose, no way that I can download you
If I ever see the light of day, I'm gonna steel some wings and I'll fly away

Everywhere I go there ain't one thing worth fighting for
Everyone I see seems to be dogging me
For hanging around, doing nothing and getting down
I gotta leave, leave this town

It might be a breakthrough or a breakdown, either way I'm gonna lose my mind
I got a bad attitude, the restless blues but I can't get off the starting line
If I could get the wheels to turn, I'd set this town ablaze and down the road I'd burn

Everywhere I go there ain't one thing worth fighting for
Everyone I see seems to be dogging me
For hanging around, doing nothing and getting down
I gotta leave, leave this town"
