Aaaa, hey baby, where are you going baby?
Hey, want to give me a ride, got get to where I'm going real fast,
Ain't got no time to waste, thing here, I'm not about to stay here,
There are children on street, with no food to eat,
I see them there, I said I got to get away,
I'm on my way.
I gotta escape this poverty, I gotta find a new reality,
Don't try and stop me boy, I'm on my way,
So light me a cigarette, cruise in a plane,
Take a trip to Paris, maybe Spain, yeah,
Oh I've got to get there, take me away, I'm on my way,
I'm on my way, I'm on my way.

You can stay, I'll leave you here,
You'd be a fool if you like what's here, hey,

Many places you can go, no one ever said I never told you so,
I'm on my way.

Shut the door, you can lock me out,
I don't give a damn I'm heading south, hey,
