Love And Theft - Runaway

It's been a long week,
I've got a slow leak in my left front tire
I'm sick of where I work,
my boss is such a jerk,
don't care if I get fired
My back's about to break,
no money in the bank,
and she don't call me anymore
I'm down to my last ring,
it's time to sell my things

And pack my bags, and never look back
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks
And make my getaway
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
Leave everybody sleeping
in this sleepy town tonight
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway

A hundred miles in,
I got a stupid grin on my scruffy face
With every cigarette, I'm burning my regrets
Don't want to leave a trace
And from the rearview,
I got a clear view, of who I used to be
A little bit faster now,
don't wanna turn around
I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks,
and make my getaway
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
Leave everybody sleeping
in this sleepy town tonight
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway
I'll be a runaway
It's crazy, I know,
to count on this road and give me what I need
But with every state line,
somehow I find, another part of me
Yeah, yeah

I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks,
and make my getaway
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down
Leave everybody sleeping
in this sleepy town tonight
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway
I'll be a runaway
I'll be a runaway
