I've seen the sky so gray that I could't cry
Hanging over my head like the middle of darkest night
Been down so low that I didn't even wanna to try
But I am getting wise

Tested love so bitter like a lemon rind
I've lived so crazy like traffic running through my mind
Been to hell and back, baby, just to pass the time
Show no mercy on me
It's time to break free

I, I'm never goin' that way again
I, I learned a thing or two where I've been
Oooh, oooh, never going that, going that way again

This monkey's digging in deep trying to stay on my back
He's reaching into this bag of tricks trying to know me off track
No little chitter chatter's gonna do me in like that
I'll leave it all behind
Oh, and I say bye bye

I, I'm never goin' that way again
I, I learned a thing or two where I've been
Oooh, oooh, never going that, going that way again

Never going that way again...

Show no mercy on me
It's time to break free

Tchup, Tchup, Tchup...

I'm never goin' that way again
I, I learned a thing or two where I've been
Oooh, oooh, never going that, going that way...

I, never goin' that way again
I, I learned a thing or two where I've been
Oooh, oooh, never going that, going that way again
