[Verse 1]
You've got your hair permed
You've got your red dress on
Screamin' that second gear was such a turn on
And the fog forming on my window
Tells me that the morning's here
And you'll be gone before too long
Who taught you those new tricks
Damn, I shouldn't start that talk
But life is one big question when you're starin' at the clock
And the answer's always waiting at the liquor store
40 ounces to freedom
And l take that walk
[Chorus]
And I know that
Oh, I'm not goin' back
Oh, not going back
Whoa, God knows I'm not going back
Oh, not going back
[Verse 2]
And you look so fine
When you lie, it just don't show
And I know which way the wind blows
A 40 ounce to freedom is the only chance I have
To feel good even though I feel bad
[Chorus]
And I know that
Oh, I'm not goin' back
Oh, not going back
Whoa, God knows I'm not going back
Oh, not going back
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm not goin' back
Whoa, I'm not going back
Whoa, God knows I'm not going back
Oh, I'm not going back
