Get Away

Is it me, or does it seem that life just carries on?
Was it him who said that life is just a song?
I don't know what will keep me on this little Earth
I just might use the love that's all in the dirt

But every damn time
That I see you
I say to myself
She ain't worth it
Uh-no-no
She ain't worth nothin' I got
Ah, no way
Nah-nah
Get away to get in

Was it you who said that my life is over?
Baby, it was over from the bitter start
Did you say that I won't be around downtown tomorrow?
Ah, yes, I will with a hardened heart

But every damn time
That I see you
I say to myself
"She ain't worth it"
No-no
She ain't worth nothin' I got
Ah-no-no, ah, no way
Yeah-eh-eh

She can have anything she wants
She really doesn't know about the way she taunts
It's tearin' me apart
It's tearin' me apart

I was walkin' yesterday at night in the park
And I saw a little girl standin' on the corner of the world
And I said, "Little girl, what ya doin' in the world?"
She looked up at me as if I was a girl
And I said, "The winds been blowing hard for oh, 'bout a thousand years at a time
But it's time to stop the hate"

I said, "Get away to get up
Get away to get up"
Get away, something to say, uh-way-oh

Did you mean something mean?
When you said that my soul was clean
Well, I know all the stories that I've been told
Are nothin' but a product sold

I was walkin' last night
I was thinkin' kinda funky I was ready to fight
Feelin' kinda friskey, drank a pint of wiskey
Never did I know, what did it would and kiss me
Up 'cross the mouth, I flick down south
My head started spinnin', like a whriley mount

And I said, "Hey girl, gotta run away
Gotta ask something, something gotta say"
And I said, "Hey, something don't ya know nothin?
Don't ya see the world that is comin' to unfurl?"

And I said, "I don't wanna say nothin' now
Except get away to get up"
Get away to get up
Get away to get up
'Cause I got something to say way, oh
