It's been a long week, I've got a slow leak in my left front tire.1
I'm sick of where I work. My boss is such a jerk, don't care if I get fired.2
My backs about to break, no money in the bank, and she don't call me anymore.3
I'm down to my last ring, it's time to sell my things,4
[Chorus:]5
And pack my bags, and never look back, run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.6
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.7
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway!8
A hundred miles in, I got a stupid grin on my scruffy face.9
With every cigarette, I'm burning my regrets.10
Don't want to leave a trace.11
And from the rear-view, I've got clear view, of who I used to be.12
A little bit faster now, don't wanna turn around.13

I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.15
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.16
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.17
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight.18
And at the break of day, I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!19
It's crazy, I know, to count on this road and give me what I need.20
But with every state line, somehow I find, another part of me.21
Yeah-e-yeah!22
I'm gonna pack my bags, and never look back.23
Run a parallel line with the railroad tracks, and make my get away.24
I put the pedal to the metal as the sun goes down.25
Leave everybody sleepin in this sleepy town tonight, and at the break of day, I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway! I'll be a runaway!26
