lyrics

CHORUS:

I walked in ready to play
Had it all and I bet it away
now there's really nothin left to say
Let's just, let's just skip town

Just another regular day
Got a debt that I can never repay
So I'm plannin out my getaway
Let's just, let's just skip town, skip town, skip town

VERSE 1:

Thought I knew the angles
And it's painful
but every hot hand ends

And I don't know no better
So I pulled the lever
Now I'm jammed up again

How much time can you buy me
Before they find me
And I pay with my life

Cause I'm packin up my
suitcase full of things that used to matter
And I'll be in the wind tonight

VERSE 2:

my face don't look familiar
and I tell ya
Thats just fine with me

Cause I'd rather not remember
all the times I just went runnin
But I guess nobody plays for free

BRIDGE:

I can't make good on what I owe, so it's right back to what I know
I can't make good on what I owe, so it's right back to what I know
I can't make good on what I owe, so it's right back to what I know
I can't make good on what I owe, so it's just gas up and go, go
