Get Me Outta Here
Words & Music by:

I’m standin’ here with a hammer in my hand
Poundin’ nails like nobody’s business
It ain’t much – but it’s a job
Beats the hell outta washin’ dishes
I got a wife and a kid and a trailer and a truck
You could say I got it all
But there are times – I’d give it a pass
For a hundred dollar bill and a tank full of gas
CHORUS
Let me Outta here
Just for a little while
Let me Outta here
Get me someplace
That’ll make me smile - smile
I had ambition - it didn’t go far
It ended one night in the back of a car
If I could find a way Outta here
I’d be gone in a minute
Gone in a minute - Yeah
Got outta school and didn’t look back
Took the first damn job that came down the track
I been draggin’ my ass from that day to this
Livin’ for a paycheck and a Friday night kiss
CHORUS
