Lyrics:

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 awhile

Goin' away for awhile

They might be shippin' me away to Dead Man's Isle

And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial

I'll be goin' away for awhile

I'm practiced up in stumblin' round

But that night really knocked me down

And now I don't know what to do

Now that that dog ran off and I can't blame him I gotta get gone outta this mess I'm in

Or I won't be going home too soon

Oh no, I might be...

Goin' away for awhile

Goin' away for a while

They might be shippin' me away to Dead Man's Isle

And if I can't find a way to win this dreadful trial

I'll be goin' away for awhile

Well I never shoulda let that dog drive

I never shoulda let him in

I never shoulda drank that last rye

I never shoulda drank 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 seeing stars

Till' they put my ass behind the bars

I guess they found out where I've been

And now...

I'm going away for awhile

I'm going away for awhile

I guess they're shippin' me away to Dead Man's Isle

Now I've got one more night of telling lies

I hope they never televise

This one last night of crooked eyes

Let's light this city up tonight

Cause I am going away for a while
