Take A Hike

Written by Hal Hollander
STOP TELLING LIES BABY, I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT
YOU AND I BOTH KNOW YOU DON'T SPEAK THE TRUTH
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU GO OR WHAT YOU'RE DOIN
THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS BOY IS WE ARE THROUGH
FOR A TIME, I WAS BLINDED BY YOUR STORIES
BUT YOUR ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS
YOU'RE NOT THE KIND OF PERSON I WANNA SPEND MY LIFE WITH
I WANT A MAN WHO WILL BE THERE WHEN IT HURTS
CHORUS:
SO, TAKE A HIKE BABY, HIT THE ROAD JACK
TAKE A LONG WALK OFF A VERY SHORT PIER
GRAB A GREYHOUND, LEAVE ON A JET PLANE
HOP A FRIEGHT TRAIN, JUST DON'T STAY HERE

IT'S FINALLY TIME FOR ME TO GO MY OWN WAY
I'M SICK & TIRED AND I GOT NOTHIN LEFT TO SAY
BUT THERE'S NO NEED FOR ME TO BE IN A HURRY
I'LL HANG AROUND TO WATCH YOU PLEAD BEG AND SCURRY
CHORUS
THE SUN IS SHINING THERE'S A SMILE ON MY FACE
I GOT MY FREEDOM AND MY OWN SPACE
I'VE GOT PLACES TO GO AND THINGS TO DO
AND I SURE DON'T NEED YOU AROUND, SO
CHORUS
BREAK
CHORUS
VERSE 2
