One more look and I'll be gone 
Leave these dirty streets behind 
Open my eyes to the world 
Go out and see what I can find 
A smile from the eye of the driver 
Says that he's seen it all before 
Young guys leave their hometown 
Don't know what they're looking for 
- But I'm sure 
I've gotta get away, got to get away, 
got to get away, from this old town 
I've gotta get away, got to get away 
- Start something new 
I've gotta get away, got to get away, 
got to get away, from this old town 
I've gotta get away 
- In one day not two 

Walk these streets I've never known 
Walk in this place that's never home 
With each day I still have hope 
That this town will let me just cope 
Dreams, dreams I've seen a few 
Dry up in the light of day 
Young guys leave their hometown 
Think dreams will pay their way 
- But no way
