How much longer I can stick around
  Cause my bags are collecting dust
  And my ceiling's coming down
  Kissed the gutter on Bourbon Street
  Louisiana give me New Orleans

  It's time to change the locks oh baby
  On my back door
  I'm east coast bound I'm stuck in
  Chinatown for the night

  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm leaving
  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm gone

  Trucks loaded up and ready to go
  The stage coach is leaving town
  My snakeskin boots are tough enough
  For that dusty Texas ground
  San Antonio get ready for me
  The Houston honeys are a luxury

  It's time to change the locks oh baby
  On my back door
  I'm east coast bound I'm stuck in
  Chinatown for the night

  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm leaving
  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm gone

  It's time to change the locks oh baby
  On my back door
  I'm east coast bound I'm stuck in
  Chinatown for the night

  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm leaving
  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm gone

  It's time to change the locks oh baby
  On my back door
  I'm east coast bound I'm stuck in
  Chinatown for the night

  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm leaving
  I'm gonna walk, run
  Whatever it takes I'm gone
