Lyrics
Getaway
By Mike Tee

Getaway, your tired of it all wanna
Runaway, gonna find that big lane
Highway, just get in your car and drive your troubles away
No time to stay, I cant take this crap outta
My way, my blood pressures high, just gotta
Getaway, I?ll do a hundred and five and drive my troubles away.
I go to work now everyday, just to collect pocket change that they call my pay
My landladys bitching about my rent
Soon I?ll be livin in a tent.
Have to bag my lunch just to save some cash
Cuttin coupons in the paper taking beer cans from the trash
Paying the paper boy in pennies everyday I don?t think I could keep livin each day
(got to drive away)
Got to get away)
Oooh I got to getaway?
