There ain't much to do 'round here
Smoke some dope and drink some beer
And look in the mirror when the music plays
Hoping the guitar'll take you away
Take you away
Take you away
If you know your Daddy you're the chosen few
Alimony always overdue
Mamma flying and about to land
From the back of another stranger's hand
Take you away
Take you away
Where can I go
What will I see?
When no one's looking down on me
I was gonna get myself a car
And point it to a distant star
Like the wise men did back in the day
Before someone took the babe away
Took him away
Took him away
Where can I go
What will I see?
When no one's looking down on me
There ain't much to do 'round here
Smoke some dope and drink some beer
And look in the mirror when the music plays
Hoping the guitar'll take you away
Take you away
Take you away
