Baby, the truth is out so don't deny
Baby, to think I believed all your lies
Darling, I can't stand to see your face
It's the truth, you understand

I've got to get away  (got to get away)
Gotta, gotta, gotta get away  (got to get away)

Baby, I don't want to live here no more
Baby, though I've torn your pictures off my walls
Darling, this old room is falling in on me
You understand the truth now

I've got to get away  (got to get away)
Gotta, gotta, gotta get away  (got to get away)

Baby, oh how could you take away your clothes?
Baby, don't screw up this old heart of gold
Darling, this'll ruin my social flare
You understand me now

I've got to get away  (got to get away)
Gotta, gotta, gotta get away  (got to get away)
