Well I've slept out on these streets before
And I've drowned myself in every bar
But not like I did with you
Now I've got one more night of tellin' lies
I hope they never televise
The things that I used to do

And now I'm on the run again
For the dumbest thing that I ever did
And I don't know what I should do
You said: You can hardly see you won't get far
So I let the dog drive the car
And hoped that I'd make it through
And I did

But I might be goin' away for a while
I might be goin' away for a while
They might be shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial
I'll be goin' away for a while

I've practiced stuff and stumbling around
But that night really knocked me down
Now I don't know what to do
And now that dog went off but I can't blame him
Gotta get done under this mess I'm in
I won't be goin' home too soon

I might be goin' away for a while
I might be goin' away for a while
They might be shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial
I'll be goin' away for a while

Well I never should've let that dog drive
I never should've let him in
I never should've drunk that last rye
I never should've drunk that gin
Now I've got one more night stuck inside of a police station
And I don't think I'll see that dog again

I've got one more night of seein' stars
Sleep on my ass behind the bars
I guess they found out where I've been

And now I'm goin' away for a while
And now I'm goin' away for a while
I guess they're shipping me away to Deadman's Isle
Now I've got one more night of tellin' lies
I hope they never televise
This one last night with crooked eyes
Let's light this city up tonight

Cause I'm goin' away
I'm goin' away
I'm goin' away for a while
