Runnin' away
To get away
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
You're wearing out your shoes
Look at you foolin' you

Making blues of day and night
Hee! Hee! Hee! Hee!
You're stretching out your dues
Look at you fooling you

The shorter cut is quicker but
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Time is here to stay
Look at you fooling you

The deeper in debt
The harder you bet
Hee! Hee! Hee! Hee!
Need more room to play
Look at you fooling you

Another day
You're farther away
Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
A longer trip back home
