If that gun is for real, I'm in trouble
|
We're not gonna make it, and I'm caught
|
It's no use to make appeal
|
I wheel and I deal
|
Now I'm down on my offers, help me, Lord
|
|
I've been been running for the whole of my young life
|
I keep taking and I never pay
|
It's the good old honest trust
|
You can't see me for the dust
|
I'll walk before your get-away
|
Get-away, get-away
|
Gone before your get-away
|
Though it gets rough
|
Gonna take off in a huff
|
I'm the golden wonder boy, I'll get away
|
|
If a thing is worth having, it's worth stealing
|
If'n I get in, I get out quick
|
Say goodbye to your hello
|
You go easy and slow
|
On some Greyhound I may come [to your?] city
|
Get-away, get-away
|
Gone before your get-away
|
Though it gets rough,
|
Gonna take off in a huff
|
I'm the golden wonder boy, I'll get away
|
|
Going, going once, going, going twice
|
Going on three times, sold to the devil for a short, sweet lie
|
|
If that gun is for real, I'm in trouble
|
[?] make it, and I'm caught
|
It's no use to make appeal
|
I wheel and I deal
|
Now I'm down on my offers, help me, Lord
|
Get-away, get-away
|
Gone before your get-away
|
Though it gets rough
|
I just take off in a huff
|
I'm the golden wonder boy, I'll get away
|
|
Get away, get away
|
What if I would get away
|
Though it gets rough
|
Gonna take off in a huff
|
I'm the golden wonder boy, I'll get away
|
|
Get away, get away
|
Help me, Lord, please, to get away
|
Get away, get away
|
I'm gonna, gonna take this golden wonder boy
|
And get away, get away
|
Help me, Lord, please
|
