|
Ain't got time to shoot the breeze, got no time to blow |
|
Excuse me mister if you please, I gotta go |
|
Born one mornin' on the day of the dead in a bombed out bungalow |
|
My momma kissed my cheek and said, I gotta go |
|
(Chorus) |
|
I gotta go somewhere |
|
I gotta go |
|
Waistin' time standin' here |
|
I gotta go |
|
They put me in an orphanage west of Tupelo |
|
I told 'em when I burnt that bridge, I gotta go |
|
Stole a car, got a gun robbed the Hidey-Ho |
|
I left Memphis on the run, I gotta go |
|
(Chorus) |
|
(Guitars) |
|
Five card stud duces wild, three kings in a row |
|
I turned that diamond duce and smiled, I gotta go |
|
They tracked my down, took my take, brother don't you know |
|
I told 'em boys, there's some mistake, I gotta go |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Cold steel up against my head, they turned the lights down low |
|
In case you didn't hear I said, I gotta go |
|
These are your very last words sir, say 'em nice and slow |
|
My last words on this planet were... |
|
(Chorus x2) |
