Lyrics
Forget all your dreams. Believe me girl, things ain’t as they seem. You be on your way. You shot your man and they’ll make you pay. Crying all the time, I told you girl, stay off the wine. Bet your bottom you’re back. And what’ll I say? Get off the tracks. You go away, there’s nothing more to say/Back another day. I’ll be there along for the ride by your side. You’re now a millionaire. He had it coming but you got to get square. Swallow all your pride. Let it go ‘cause it’s time for you to hide. You got all you need. Grab your bags or they’ll make you bleed. Innocent of the crime, stop your pleading. Leave it for another time. Get out of town. Don’t mess around. Don’t make a sound or you will be found. You’ll be buried and bound six feet under ground to die like a hound. Run like the wind. Don’t look back but don’t think that you have sinned. Give that money away. Feed the poor and buy toys for kids to play.
