I been out on the road and above in the air, I'm a long way from home but I just don't care. The dust from the road makes it dry in my mouth, When it's cold up north, that's when I head south. 'Cause I been tryin' to, tryin' to get away, yeah. Tryin' to, tryin' to get away, yeah. I passed through New York just the other day, The smog was bad but not as bad as L.A. Sometimes I wonder what the world's comin' to. Sometimes I wonder what I'm gonna' do. CHORUS 'Cause I been tryin' to, tryin' to get away, yeah. I been tryin' to, tryin' to get away, yeah. I been out on the road and above in the air, I'm a long way from home but I just don't care. The dust from the road makes it dry in my mouth, When it's cold up north, that's when I head south. Tryin' to, tryin' to get away. Tryin' to, tryin' to get away. Tryin' to, tryin' to get away. Tryin' to, tryin' to get away. CHORUS 'Cause I been tryin' to, tryin' to get away, yeah, yeah, yeah.
