Sometimes I get a feelin' Like there's poison in my mind And there ain't no kind of pill That can take that away
I gotta see that girl I'm gonna curl Up in her arms in her bed And fade away
Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away from the devil Gotta get away from the world And the closer that I get to heaven That's the closer I get to that girl Gotta get away Gotta get away
Sometimes these angry feelings Get invented by myself And sometimes it's this mean old world That makes me feel alone
I wanna feel some joy Like a little boy She can take away this pain I'm feelin' today
Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away from the devil Gotta get away from the world And the closer that I get to heaven That's the closer I get to that girl Gotta get away Gotta get away
Sometimes I get so hurt And betrayed by a friend And I know it's gonna take some time For that hurt to mend
I'm gonna see that girl She's the best girl in the world Curl up in her arms For a long weekend
Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away from the devil Gotta get away from the world And the closer that I get to heaven That's the closer I get to that girl Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away Gotta get away
