I'm leaving on the five train Don't ask me when I'm coming back again I reckon it's only a matter of time Before the law kick in the door Mother I'm running out of change But I had to phone to let you know They'll never take me alive They'll never take me alive Mother I k**ed someone It wasn't that I hated him You see, he was trying to stop me But he found out I'd go the whole way They'll never take me alive They'll never take me I can't tell you how I feel Maybe you don't wanna know Maybe, maybe But anyway: I love you so They'll never take me alive They'll never take me They'll never take me alive
