Oh, he deals 'em off, off the top, ties 'em off
fills it up with his past, gets carried away
oh, half his life, a hand-me-down, wasted away
oh, he fills it up with the love of a girl
Oh, he left it alone, drilled the pain with money to buy
How he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
Oh, he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
fills his mind with the thought of a girl
How he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
getaway
fills it up with his past, gets carried away
oh, half his life, a hand-me-down, wasted away
oh, he fills it up with the love of a girl
Oh, he left it alone, drilled the pain with money to buy
How he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
Oh, he chose a path, heavy the fall, quarter to four
fills his mind with the thought of a girl
How he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
how he makes his getaway
getaway
