I've been tryin' to get away
  To get away
  To leave this old town
  I've been tryin' to see my way
  To see my way
  So I won't be found
  Many times I've felt alone
  I've felt alone
  But that's all behind
  One thing I know
  I know
  One thing is that
  
  I know I have to go
  Got no dough
  Should I stay or should I go
  Gotta get away
  Don't want to stay
  Leavin' tomorrow by subway
  
  Some people, they tell me
  They tell me
  I've been here to long
  It don't compel me
  They tell me
  I just don't belong
  
  Sometimes I wonder
  I wonder
  What's right or what's wrong
  One thing I
  I know
  One thing is that
  
  I know I have to go
  Got no dough
  Should I stay or should I go
  Gotta get away
  Don't want to stay
  Leavin' tomorrow by subway
  
  I gotta get away
  Get away, get away, get away
  I gotta get away
  Yeah, baby get away, gotta, gotta, gotta get away
  Whoo, you've gotta get away
